There's no question about retaining copyright here: while some people
have voluntarily surrendered their logos into the public domain I don't
intend to require it. Licencing perhaps, although most people seem to
think that an Open or Free licence is not restrictive enough to protect
our name and image.
So, which legal entities can hold it? Kenneth asserts that "LinuxChix"
cannot. I'd prefer it not be a single person, as individual people burn out,
disappear, get busy, get bored, or have something unfortunate happen to
them and vanish from projects on a regular basis.
