Including the "17" ... bad.  I can understand the concerns of the Edu-  
folk, and though Ebuntu *might* lead to some confusion (which will always  
be rampant, anyway, on many levels), so I'm forced to agree that it might  
not be the best choice where "buntudom" overall is concerned, even if it  
is natural and logical.  Perhaps "Ebuntument." :-)  (Sorry, but anything  
other than Ebuntu is going to look and feel awkward. <sigh>)
