"I visit Distrowatch everyday, and also have an RSS feed here at Total Linux listing the latest releases, and only recently did I see the long waiting list of new projects who are hoping that a spot on Distrowatch will launch them to ÜberStardom, or even ÜbuStardom ;-)

"Check out the waiting list below, you never know, you may find a hidden little gem of a distro that hasn't got the backing of the likes of Canonical or Novell, so remains unknown.
