* [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-January/009874.html proposed patch to the current draft]
* dfarning has asked us for permission to use the mark in his Ubuntu Sugar Remix

* From the point of view of Marketing, is this trademark policy legally tight enough to prevent abuse?
* From the point of view of Marketing, is this trademark policy legally tight enough to prevent abuse? See [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/marketing/2010-January/002621.html Sean's thoughts] and the subsequent thread, from which I've pulled discussion questions, below:
** What conditions must the licensee respect in order to be allowed to use a SL mark? (Broad question covered by other points in our trademark discussion for tomorrow, I believe - this is basically the entire question.)
** There is an assumption (or proposal) in the email that trademark usage of all SL marks will be free. Is this something we agree on, and should explicitly state?
** When would licensing not be routine, i.e. require consideration before licensing?
* What formulation(s) of the SL marks should we provide as options? This is the label text - our "circled intel inside sticker", if you will.
** What could motivate us to revoke a license?
** What graphical specifications on mark usage do we want to set forth? (must have this much whitespace, must use these colors, must not be distorted, etc) We might just set this as "we want to have graphical specifications," have someone take an action for it, and then vote on that as an amendment later when it's ready.gt
* What does the process look like from the perspective of a trademark requestee (walk through a case study)? How much work-time and wait-time do we predict such a requestee will have to budget for the process, and is this acceptable? What steps can we take, or amendments can we make to the draft proposal, to reduce that cost even further?
