  Well, this is good for all the developers, because it's a reward for 
thier hard work. IMHO, it has a bad side, too. Other Linux users starts 
to feel bad about Ubuntu, because of ,,hype''. Ubuntu review on Linux 
sites brings a few people that will complain that ,,omfg, another Ubuntu 
review! That makes 9 this week.''

  The point is: we need to play nice with other distributions, since we 
don't compete with them. Two days ago someone asked about sound problem 
in Slackware on Ubuntu-PL. The first e-mail that came as reply was like 
that: This is a Ubuntu mailing list. I was forced to remind that we 
should follow Code of Conduct and if someone ask about something that 
can help other Linux user (we're community in general). Also, I can say 
we're quite skilled when it comes to Linux. The guy with a sound problem 
was impressed, because on other not-distribution-specific mailing lists 
noone was able to tell what's wrong. On Ubuntu-PL it took 10 minutes to 
provide a problem background and URL's for solution.

  If this guy would end up with: Sorry, we can't help you. We're *teh* 
Ubuntu user -- would he spread a good word about Ubuntu? When he get a 
fast and detalied ansfer, he can feel how nice we are. :-)

  With great power comes big responiblility.

  Ah! I'm late for work. :P
