Hi,
Here is the draft which had been proposed by Ian a long time ago, and
seemed accepted by the Debian staff:
Do yu need some special formatting/layout? iirc some small typo/wording
were changed, but the essential is here.
Regards
=== draft letter ===
RE DEBIAN - EUROPEAN ARTICLE NUMBER (EAN)
To Whom It May Concern
The Debian Project ("Debian") and Software In The Public Interest
Inc ("SPI") wish to make known that:
1. Debian, through its Trusted Organisations including SPI, owns and
controls the trademark "Debian" in various jurisdictions.
2. Debian does not provide European Article Numbers (EANs). Nor do
any of Debian's associated organisations do so on Debian's behalf.
3. Debian and SPI give public permission for products embodying
Debian's software and documentation to be sold, according to the
Debian Trademark Policy (which can be found at
https://www.debian.org/trademark). That policy does not make any
requirement about EANs. Therefore (provided the the policy is adhered
to) we have no objection to Debian branded products being sold without
EANs.
4. Debian do not anticpate this situation changing in the next 2
years. Specifically, we do not expect to be issuing EANs within the
next 2 years.
5. Please therefore allow vendors of Debian merchandise to trade,
notwithstanding any lack of EANs for those products.
6. This is without predjudice, of course, to our right to enforce our
trademarks against anyone found violating our trademark policy. We
are simply saying that lack of an EAN is, in itself, completely fine.
