I would feel a bit more encouraged if Canonical were to put a tiny bit

Alan. Look at the really annoying adverts that Microsoft put on the
Linux Mag e-pages. A similar effort from Canonical would not cost the
earth and would raise interest. Add to that the potential army of
volunteers like us who would give loads of time to the follow up
.... Canonical; if you are listening - don't miss the opportunity.

they have been doing some stuff recently to encourage people to create
applications for Ubuntu, I think that resulted in 140 or so being
submitted, there were some laptops as prizes (and a tshirt for everyone
taking part)

this is the kind of area where the effort is concentrated.
