Hey all, I've made an SVG, please excuse me if I'm not supposed to
attach it in a mailing list but I don't really have any other place to
put it :) Unless I do and I just don't know it...?

I've had to take some minor liberties in order to make sure it's a
uniform and consistent design, with arcs that are actually based upon
ellipses.  I basically just did some cutting with some skewed spheres
and rotated them to the approx. positions.

the colours are official RGB ubuntu colours as per:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official
Obviously this isn't my original artwork so I'll just say I converted
to SVG pro bono ruski publico ;)  the original artist has full
discretion over the copyright.

Let me know what you think :)
