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:

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?
