    New Improvements for Umbuntu - a rename.

    I like crawly cliquey incrowd speak, and I kind of hate the word Umbuntu - it's too long and lumpy to use in emails etc.

    Since no one has come up with a clever abbreviation for it, at all... I thought "Yeah, I am **** hot - I'll use my genius talent and create one".

    So I am proposing to invent a new crawly incrowd cliquey kind of name for it, in an abbreviated form.

    Instead of Umbuntu, we can call it, "Umbi".

    How's that! Brilliant Yes.

    I've always seen 'ubu' whenever someone wants to shorten the name. Umbuntu? Am I missing something?

    It's 'Ubuntu', not 'Umbuntu'. So we'd have to change the name to 'Umbuntu' first, and then 'Umbi', for it to make sense.
