Nicolas, great catch! Agree with Paul, this is worth doing and the text
you picked is an excellent starting point. I've edited it slightly and
would be happy for this to be used:

"The Ubuntu Font Family are libre fonts funded by Canonical Ltd on
behalf of the Ubuntu project. The font design work and technical
implementation is being undertaken by Dalton Maag. The typeface is
sans-serif, uses OpenType features and is manually hinted for clarity on
desktop and mobile computing screens.

The scope of the Ubuntu Font Family includes all the languages used by
the various Ubuntu users around the world in tune with Ubuntu's
philosophy which states that every user should be able to use their
software in the language of their choice. The project is ongoing, and we
expect the family will be extended to cover many written languages in
the coming years."
