In August on 2007 Ubuntu Weekly News (an official ubuntu publication) included the following "103 members was the official count in channel, and this even included some wives." Elizabeth Krumbach followed the standard procedures for commenting on this publication and sent a mail to the ubuntu-marketing list asking them to consider the term "spouses" be used rather than "wives" to describe the partners of project members attending events, since her husband was a frequent attendee of events and it should be no surprise that as an Ubuntu Member and wife, that she would be attending.
