Subdomains make me uncomfortable because it means someone else is responsible for our domain. They could let it lapse and there would be nothing we could do about it. I realize it's a mockery of the democratic process, but I think <a href="http://ubuntuwisconsin.org">ubuntuwisconsin.org</a> looks perfectly fine. Personally I dislike hyphens in URLs, and ubuntuwisconsin is still pretty easy to distinguish. There's always, of course, <a href="http://wisconsinloco.org">wisconsinloco.org</a>. It doesn't come out and say "Ubuntu", but maybe that's okay.
