Bug Description

http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/derivatives
This page uses the deprecating term "derivatives". It should use flavours for an Ubuntu product which is built from the Ubuntu archive.
derivates should be used for distributions build outwith the Ubuntu archive such as Linux Mint

We also seem to be unable to decide what flavour of flavor to use.

"Download Ubuntu *flavor* derivatives using the links below."

"Recognised Ubuntu *flavours*"

We will fix tomorrow.

The web team was unaware that the term 'derivatives' was deprecated.

And we will use the English spelling ... like we try to everywhere... flavour.
