Ubunchu is an Ubuntu-based manga by . The french translation was a collab between JohnathanMM, ZedTuX, and myself. The french translation is unfortunately not based on the original japanese version; it is based no the english translation, a collab between Fumihito Yoshida, Hajime Mizuno, , and . But it doesn't stop there; the english translation is based on the "Engrish" translation, a rough computer-aided translation from the Japanese version.

In short, this translation is relatively "far" from the original text:
Japanese -> Engrish -> English -> French.
It is by no means a professional translation. A lot has been lost in translation. Namely, puns. We did our best to add some to compensate, and kept the most obvious of them all (it's in the title, silly).
