I've mentioned before that my standpoint is that it's impossible to
properly police every fan driven event out there, and I seem to
recall that use of a trademark by fans in a manner that isn't making
profits is generally considered acceptable use. Is it not therefore
a good-enoungh way to start by allowing (CTR instead of RTC as it were)?
Absolutely. We don't even *want* to police every fan event. And we
want a LOT of fan events. The nuance is the moment we give our
Official Seal Of Approval to a group/event/organization, then we are
implicitly approving their message, and that's where we introduce
audience confusion.
Why do we, as the ASF and/or as community.a.o want to give our Official
Seal of Approval to small events / meetups?
To be clear, I'm *not* suggesting that we refuse to help. We can -
should! - support groups that request it, but I'm asking why there's any
de-facto expectation that there should be an Official Seal of Approval
for small events / meetups.
