Questionable. In any case proper enforcement of trademark law really only comes in at the nuisance level. Things get more problematical due to people using trademark to make threatening legal noises to limit free speech (although that may not be the intention it is the effect). A lot of the time this is accidental due to people being confused over the difference between copyright and trademark or the limits of trademark. Heh a recent mildly amusing case. Ryan air wrote to private eye to object to the use of their trademark in a parody of budget airline routes and prices. Private Eye responded by referring to the Arkell vs. Pressdram incident (not that I would suggest that this is something the foundation should follow). -- geni _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
