Pronouncing "ubuntu"

I think on this list we all know its oo-boon-too.

However if I said that to any Aussie that wasn't on the list they'd
think either a) I'm swearing at them, b) I'd had a stroke or c) lost my
mind. So we tend to say "you-bun-too". So now it's no longer an African
word, but the australianised (bastardised??) version of the name of a
flavour of Debian Linux :-()

Kind Regards Russell
