For me a personal phone is one where I dictate what to share and what not.
Freedom in the sense that I can choose to use no cloud, my personal one, or a more public one.

Freedom to install apps I want, so for this we still need to look at anbox or the likes as app devs wont quickly develop for UBports.

And then there is battery life... Should not be worst then the default OS.
Lastly a nice and friendly GUI, but Ubuntu Touch does it best.

But the real reason for me to be here aside the personal aspect is convergence. One device. My dream.

1. Aside Canonical allowing us to use the name or a derivative I feel for an own brand. It will make the project/product a lot more unique and recognisable. And as such a change is never "easy" it should be thought through properly. But if this has been done should be excecuted as fast as possible after.

2. I like the devices part of the logo, but in line with Q1 we should at least replce the ubuntu logo with something of our own. Or design a completely new logo. The Robot IMHO does not bring anything to the table. Its half android bot, half teletubbie / Wall-e.

3. No real opinion here. But would "merge" it with the OS name I think.

Hi all,

Following the various telegram groups the questions below have been asked a couple of times. But no real answer is given. And as telegram messages disappear in time I thought I will ask these questions here, so we can more broadly share our thoughts.

All the questions come down to the projects Branding.

1. Are we allowed to keep the Ubuntu name? Does Canonical approve.
   1a. If no, what will we change it in? And how fast...
   1b. If yes, do we want to keep it? or change it and how fast.

2. What do we use as a project logo?
   2a. is there an "official" one?
   2a-i Is this the device logo with the half hidden Ubuntu logo?
   2a-ii Is this the robot that supposedly would only be used as an installer bot logo
   2b shall we let someone come up with a few new ones and vote for one?

3. UBports as a project name derives from Ubuntu as well, is we don't keep that name, do we change the projects name as well?
