"The name of the distribution comes from the African concept of ubuntu which may be rendered roughly as "humanity toward others", "we are people because of other people", or "I am who I am because of who we all are", though other meanings have been suggested."

Or in other words, I guess that means ...,
"Ubuntu others as you would have them ubuntu you." 😉
