Dear Mark Shuttleworth,

as always, you're handling controversy with tact and patience. I was proud to have you as the SABDFL when Launchpad's licensing and Firefox's EULA were issues, I think you handled them well. According to the Ubuntu Code of Conduct, you're expected to be perfect and so far you have been (as far as Ubuntu is concerned, IMHO). I trust you to make the right decision concerning Ubuntu One, even if it's one I don't like.

I have read your comment in this bug report and I still have a few questions:
Do you consider Ubuntu One a part of Ubuntu?
Do you feel that the name "Ubuntu One" ties the product to Ubuntu intimately?
Do you feel that community is the focus of Ubuntu?
Do you feel that the community is or will be as significantly involved in Ubuntu One as in Ubuntu?
Do you feel that Ubuntu One fully meets the Ubuntu philosophy and the Ubuntu spirit, without resorting to the special rights Canonical has in owning the trademark?

You don't have to give simple yes or no answers to these questions, I'm not trying to trick you into anything here. I'm trying to understand exactly how this bug is (or is going to be) closed.
If I were to answer the questions, I'd say no, yes, yes, no and no, but I'm not the daddy, am I? ;)

Yours, etc
