Clarify brand ownership and usage guidelines

Open rvs opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

It would be great to have some clarity around who owns the Moby brand and how do they license it out. This information would be great to have on https://mobyproject.org/

For a good example feel free to take a look at the ASF Trademark Policy https://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/

Without this clarification it really isn't quite clear how community friendly Moby brand really is

FYI: "MOBY" and "MOBY PROJECT" seem registered trademarks now http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4804:yqxzr6.2.1 http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4804:yqxzr6.2.5
