<div dir="ltr">Un autre point..dans les future banners inchalla on va mettre sous le nom du distro une phrase genre "ubuntu for Muslims" or "Linux for Muslims" as a description but not as a name or a part of the name; this will eliminate the confusion.

Cependant pour l'utilisateur non averti, il ne comprendra pas s'il est indien ou indonésien (la majorité des mususlmans ne sont pas arabophones). Cela dit cela pourra l'inciter à aller se renseigner. C'est pourquoi je propose de l'appeler Ubuntu Muslim Release (c'est la meme chose Edition ss qu'on dise Edition, on comprend tout de suite, c'est en anglais ce qui est clair) et de mettre comme slogan أقرou أقرأ باسم ربك ce qui permet d'insister sur l'idée de savoir et de connaissance qui est très importante dans le logiciel libre et dans ubuntu. La aya de sourate youssef, elle est sympa mais elle donne l'impression que l'utilisateur d'ubuntu est isolé et qu'il prêche dans le désert. On peut aussi l'appeler Ubuntu Sabili et mettre en sous titre the ubuntu muslim release ce qui incite les gens à savoir ce que veut dire sabili et en terme de reconnaissance et d'image de marque est très clair et explicite.
