This is pretty much my position, although I'd probably weight my
preference for modifying the logo a bit more strongly. (There's
clearly been some miscommunication here.) Of course Ubuntu GNOME
should be able to use the logo - I was just arguing that they
shouldn't *just* use the GNOME logo [1].

[1] It's a useful thought exercise to think about what would happen if
openSUSE (to pick an example) wanted to launch "openSUSE GNOME", btw.
In this case they'd differentiate themselves from "Ubuntu GNOME",
etc...
