What does Ars Tribunus Angusticlavius mean?

As far as I can tell Ars is Art, Tribunus is Tribune and Angusticlavius is narrow stripe. In Roman society Tribunus Angusticlavius was a Tribune who wore a uniform/toga with a narrow purple stripe on the edge denoting his rank. The Technology forum Ars Technica used to use, and is reintroducing, a ranking system based on the Roman system. Thus an Ars Technica forum member with a sufficient ranking would be Ars Tribunus Angusticlavius. That's to the best of my knowledge.
