Sorry for the delay in responding, but I had to find the time to
investigate this.
I'm afraid the answer is no. Ubuntu is trademarked in the form we use it
when using it as a trademark, so we don't allow translations to the word
"Ubuntu" or the tagline (i.e. "Linux for Human Beings").
Just one note on the tagline to make it clear: when using it as a
sentence in documentation, etc., and not as a trademark, it is of course
fine to translate it.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
David.
