Howdy,
Our official name is the Ubuntu Colorado Local Community Team. (that's
where CO LO CO comes from)
I should add that the "CoLoCo" name is actually well known here at work. :-)
If we need to shorten it, "Ubuntu Colorado" with the team logo would
get my vote. Bonus points for some sleeve action ("CoLoCo Rules!!!")
:-)
