A rough translation of the principle of Ubuntu is "humanity towards others". Another translation could be: "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity".

'n Rowwe vertaling van die beginsel van ubuntu is "medemenslikheid". 'n Ander vertaling kan wees: "die geloof in 'n universele band van mededeelsaamheid wat die ganse mensdom verbind".

"A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed."

" 'n Persoon met ubuntu is oop en beskikbaar aan ander, gee erkenning, voel nie bedreig deur ander se vermoëns nie, want hy of sy het selfvertroue weens lidmaatskap aan 'n groter geheel, en word verkleineer wanneer ander verneder of verkleineer word, wanneer ander gemartel of onderdruk word."

As 'n platform gebaseer op GNU/Linux, bring die Ubuntu-bedryfstelsel die gees van ubuntu na die wêreld van sagteware.

The Ubuntu project is entirely committed to the principles of open source software development; people are encouraged to use open source software, improve it, and pass it on. This means that Ubuntu is and will always be free of charge.

However, this means more than just being available at zero cost. The philosophy of free software is that people should be free to use software in all the ways that are "socially useful". "Free software" doesn't just mean that you shouldn't have to pay for it, it also means that you should be able to use the software in any way you wish: the code that makes up free software is available for anyone to download, change, fix, and use in any way. So apart from the fact that free software is often available without charge, this freedom also has technical advantages: when programs are developed, the hard work of others can be used and built upon. With non-free software, this cannot happen and when programs are developed, they have to start from scratch. For this reason the development of free software is fast, efficient and exciting!

Hierdie beteken egter meer as om bloot gratis te wees. Die filosofie van Vrye Sagteware is dat dit mense vry moet staan om sagteware te gebruik op enige "sosiaal nuttige" manier. "Vrye Sagteware" beteken nie dat u bloot nie daarvoor behoort te betaal nie, dit beteken ook dat u die sagteware op enige manier behoort te kan gebruik: die kode waarvan Vrye Sagteware gemaak word is beskikbaar vir enigeen om af te laai, te verander, reg te maak en op enige manier te gebruik. Afgesien van die feit dat Vrye Sagteware gewoonlik gratis beskikbaar is, het hierdie vryheid dus ook tegniese voordele: wanneer programme ontwikkel word, kan ander se werk gebruik en op uitgebrei word. Met nievrye sagteware kan hierdie nie gebeur nie, en wanneer programme ontwikkel word, moet daar van voor af begin word. As gevolg hiervan is die ontwikkeling van Vrye Sagteware vinnig, doeltreffend en opwindend!

There are many different operating systems based on GNU/Linux: Debian, SuSE, Gentoo, RedHat, and Mandriva are examples. Ubuntu is yet another contender in what is already a highly competitive world. So what makes Ubuntu different?
|
|
|
|
|
Daar is vele verskillende bedryfstelsels gebaseer op GNU/Linux: Debian, SuSE, Gentoo, RedHat en Mandriva is voorbeelde. Ubuntu is nog 'n mededinger in hierdie reeds kompeterende wêreld. Wat maak Ubuntu dan anders?
