I wanted to see what the status is on this theme. I have, with the help 
of Canonical IS, found the location from which the current theme is 
being mirrored:

<https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio-website>

I'm not sure if it's important, but the Wordpress instances hosted by 
Canonical are Juju charms:

<https://code.launchpad.net/wordpress-services-charm>
<https://code.launchpad.net/wordpress-theme-charm>

Right now, I think getting a working staging area would be a good idea. 
Once that's done, we would need a location from which to download the 
theme, which would then get uploaded to the link above.

Let me know if there's anything you need from me.
