Assalamo alaykom, Yesterday Mark Shuttleworth was here in Tunisia in this event: http://www.tunisiaopensourceconf.tn and after his conference I meet him with Tunisian ubuntu locoteam :) In this meeting we discussed many subjects..one of them was Sabily :) yep I introduced Sabily to Mark and he liked the idea (he asked me about the plus of Sabily % ubuntu...), also I told him that at the beginning the project was called "Ubuntu Muslim Edition" (and here he said "nice..very good idea" or something like that) and after one year one guy from canonical contacted us asking to not use the word "ubuntu" in the name of our work, here Mark said that "it is a mistake..our mistake and not yours..there is no contradiction between Islam and ubuntu, and you can use it, contact me and I will correct this situation". Well at this moment one member of ubuntu-tn said that he remember very much that mail and that the problem was not in using "ubuntu" in the name but the use of "edition" (Mehdi can you confirm that? I do not remember that..there is more than two years), any way Mark at that moment said that even in this case we can use "ubuntu Muslim remix" for exemple, he asked me to mail him about that to correct this situation. I thanked him for his action and his point of view about that and I informed him that I should ask the team before, since we have a good success with the new name "Sabily", he said "OK".
So here I will ask you what do you think about that? personally I think that the word Sabily sounds good and now it has a good success and it is not a good idea to change it again, what do you think? Any way I should send him a mail thanking him again for his offer and inform him about our point of view.
