The ubuntu part in my version is straight from the official logo.
Setting "ubuntu" in one those 2 fonts looks quite different. I think
it's bad to set ubuntu in a similar but still clearly distinct font.
Even worse would be combining the original with just brainstorm set in
one of the fonts. They are not compatible (that closely together).

On top of that, I strongly dislike the m and r in "Title" and somewhat
dislike the r in "Titling".

I'll gladly hand out the SVG to anyone who thinks he can improve my
letters but I remain against using one of the fonts here.
