Canonical owns the Ubuntu trademark and licenses it in a way that we think best serves the project. Sometimes that includes commercial use, both by Canonical and by other companies. That's a natural part of protecting the mark and ensuring the health of the project. We also license it in a way that allows the Ubuntu community quite a lot of freedom, and the trademark policy attempts to lay out those use cases. I don't think there is anything untoward in the use of the mark in Ubuntu One.
Hi -
