No. The numbered versions are based on Ubuntu (Mint 12 is current,
based on 11.10), but have significant tweaks throughout. There are
other variants. The Debian one is cherry-picked from Debian unstable
and is a rolling release.
I tried a Ubuntu 10.10 beta netbook remix with Unity on my Asus EeePC
netbook, and after a month dumped it for Mint 10 because Unity sux.
Mint's menu layout is compact and logical, and I'm very happy with this
distro on the netbook.
