Thanks for raising up these issues.

Evan? Drupal/theme hard coding?

It needs to be shorter. Try something like 'get it now'

No, they are ordered according to the numbers of users of the site, their
geo location and language. This is actually 'hard coded' as in Evan and I
discussed it and decided to keep the current order.

No, not in the logo. You can translate it elsewhere when you mean "spread
ubuntu" but when you refer to the site/project itself, no translation is
possible.

Think of it as a brand within a brand (light or cherry coke, as under the
coke brand). You do not translate light coke, do you?

Let's try to keep it here and merge the other bugs here (or handle these as
bugs and close this one).
