As I said in my email, it is: * to build their own brand * to avoid confusion like Linux <==> Ubuntu It's like when someone asks me what's the weird OS of my laptop. I don't say: "Linux" or "GNU/Linux" first, because it confuses people: you find Linux and GNU everywhere, from TV to phones, PDA, servers, etc. I first say "Free Software," then eventually I show it's Ubuntu (if they want to give it a try). Again, I personally have no problem with that. My main problem are: * Ubuntu One is proprietary server * The Front page says Open Source instead of Free Software But I don't think it's worth having that discussion. Canonical has made their choice on that. Let's talk about important issues like Ubuntu One.
