"Debian consortium takes on Novell, Red Hat"
http://www.linuxworld.com.au/index.php/id;565268958;fp;2;fpid;3

Ubuntu appears in the last paragraph of that article:

"Indeed, if there was any downside to the presentation, it was the fact
that Ubuntu -- the Debian-based distribution founded by South African
dot-com billionaire Mark Shuttleworth that's proven wildly popular since
it launched in October 2004 -- had declined to participate. That led me
to wonder: Are we witnessing the beginnings of a new Debian standards
skirmish -- the DCC Alliance's formal standard versus Ubuntu's de facto
one?"
