Hey there, I was quite surprised seeing this topic being discussed in multiple places :-) As far as I can say (re-iterating my views on the other list), we would rather define sponsored as sponsored from the ubuntu community as the whole approval process is taken care by the LoCo Council on behalf of the ubuntu community. So bringing in canonical (although they sponsor some of the resources for approved loco teams) would be commercial and bit vague.
