Ubuntu 14.04.1 mate download

https://ubuntu-mate.org/longterm/

Objectives

Ubuntu MATE has a number of guiding objectives and goals.

Accessible to all, regardless of language and physical ability.
Increase both Ubuntu and MATE Desktop user adoption.
Ubuntu alternative for computers that aren't powerful enough to run a composited desktop.
First choice Ubuntu platform for remote workstation solutions such as LTSP and X2Go.
Restore the halcyon days of Ubuntu before Unity was introduced.
Use themes and artwork similar to Ubuntu so that Ubuntu MATE is immediately familiar.
When possible contribute to Debian so both the Debian and Ubuntu communities benefit.
Package selection will favour functionality and stability over lightness and whimsy.
Provide a refuge for Linux users who prefer a traditional desktop metaphor.
Get adopted as an official Ubuntu "flavour".
