I agree with both points of view.

I also would like to be able to use Ubuntu on the RaspberryPi board and I'm quite sad I won't able to do it. I'll use Debian instead of Ubuntu and this is ok too, with the difference that Debian has not Unity/Unity-2D in their repositories and it will be hard to do my tests.

I can understand the Canonical point of view too: they're committed to create and maintain a good Desktop and Server product, Ubuntu is not intended as embedded distribution, so if they had to take a decision and sacrifice something they have simply choosen the most obvious one.

All we can do is trying to contact Linaro directly and ask them if they have any intention to port Ubuntu also on ARM v6 CPU.
