Here's Abi's write-up about the inspiration for the cubes and clouds shown at the top of the bug-report:

  For the cube concept, I wanted to go with simplicity for the design and not clobber it with too many details. Like the letter E it just was based on ensemble and nothing more.

  The other logo where I've drawn the relaxed man with a netbook sitting on an E with wings was to symbolize " cloud" and how networking can be easily done, of course using the ensemble product wherein the E with the wings suggests there's always something that you can rely on even up in the clouds. and the relaxed posture of the man was to show how easily things can be done.

  As for the ubuntu logo looking like a flying saucer amidst the clouds was just a random concept. Keeping atuned with ubuntu and it's cloud prospects. infact I wanted to interconnect each ubuntu logo there but since it was rough i let it slide for now.

  Overall, what i thinkwould be best for the key elements for this logo would be clouds, something to represent E, and a human touch of some kind so it's not all mechanical and maybe if we can not clutter it and keep it a little abstract.

  Let me know if you have any ideas
