Don't believe everything you read on Ubuntu forums -- Fluxbuntu still an Ubuntu stepchild
After thinking that I'm "breaking" some kind of news on Fluxbuntu becoming an official port of Ubuntu, I go back to the Ubuntu Forums and find out that the April 1 day meant that it was an April Fool's joke from Fluxbuntu principal Joe Jaxx, reports bodhi.zazen, the other Fluxbuntu biggie who posted it in the first place.
Guess I should've checked it out further.
Here's what bodhi.zazen writes in the forum:
Re: Fluxbuntu
Ha ha ha ...
I forgot to tell you Joe Jaxx told me this on April 1st, so it looks like the joke is on me
Sorry to have mislead you all in my excitement
The Fluxbuntu website is under construction and there is a release planned based on Feisty shortly after April 19 th.
But Fluxbutu is not going "official" at this time. Ha ha
Oh yeah, I'm so laughing right now. Who doesn't like a good software-release April Fool's joke?

And if you though that was funny...
I can send you the announcement I prepared for the Ubuntu Forums if you like.
Long Live Fluxbuntu !
I forgot to add :
Who is more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him ?
Well, I think it is poor forum for you to bad mouth the Ubuntu forums and myself without posting comments.
You seem to have no sense of journalism or professionalism.
Two thumbs down.
Cool site. Thanks.
