A small request from a German.

I am quite allergic to seeing people use the letters s and s for
Subsurface. Those two letter mean something entirely differently to many
people around the globe, and not something I want to be in any way
associated with. So if you need to refer to Subsurface with an
abbreviation (why? are letters that expensive where you live?) then use
ssrf or something like that, please

As to Ubuntu - we don't control what versions the distributions are
including. Please file a bug with Ubuntu.
