Assalamu aleikum

 

Personally, I think that the Sabily name should stay. Perhaps add a line 
somewhere in the documentation, which states that Sabily is based on Ubuntu. If 
you dig deeply enough on Ubuntu, you will come across the phrase that Ubuntu is 
based on Debian. So, it would be a similar approach.

 

Wassalam

Wa alaykum salam


 

I you asked me earlier (with high hopes.. hehehe ) instead of Mark, I still opt 
for Sabily. Unless, if we plan to create official ties with Mark (especially 
canonical) and happens to be a joint venture (JV), why not? Perhaps, add 
another word. Sabily Ubuntu (in the case of Kubuntu, Edubuntu etc) or 
reactivate Muslim Edition but as our tagline. 

 

Just another piece of my idea

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.
