Thanks for the answer, but as long as the license does not grant
the right to use the logo for this specific purpose, there is indeed
a problem. Thanks for coming back to me once you have a lawyer answer.
Thanks,

Hi,
I am not a lawyer, but I believe this means that you can simply not
reuse the logo for other purposes than the one available in the Original
Code.
This Exhibit is now used by most of the professional open source vendors
such as Zimbra or SugarCRM for instance....
http://www.sugarforge.org/content/open-source/public-license.php
http://www.zimbra.com/license/zimbra_public_license_1.2.html
So this is something usual in the OSS license world and certainly
verified by several IP lawyers....
I will however ask our lawyer the next time I meet with him about this
question.... In all the case, our interpretation is that you can not
reuse the Jahia logo without our prior consent excepted of course at the
place where we put it in the original code.
Cheers,
Stéphane

Hi,
On your web site, you advertise the Jahia Community Edition as a FREE
product refering to the use of CDDL for it's source code.
Looking closely at the differences between JCDDL and CDDL, I see
in JCDDL a requirement to display the logo on every pages, where is
clearly stated that JCDDL does not grant any license on the logo.
(see below)
So, here is a license question:
Where can I get a license for the logo to be able to run Jahia on
a web site that can be reached outside my company?
Thanks,
Christophe
II. JAHIA and logo.
This License does not grant any rights to use the trademarks "JAHIA"
and the "JAHIA" logos even if such marks are included in the Original
Code or Modifications.
However, in addition to the other notice obligations, all copies of
the Covered Software in Executable and Source Code form distributed
must, as a form of attribution of the Initial Developer, include on
each user interface screen (i) the "JAHIA" logo and (ii) the copyright
notice in the same form as the latest version of the Covered Code
distributed by the Initial Developer at the time of distribution of
such copy. In addition, the "JAHIA" logo must be visible to all users
and be located at the very bottom of each user interface screen.
Notwithstanding the above, the dimensions of the "JAHIA" logo must be
at least 45 x 34 pixels. When users click on the "JAHIA" logo it must
direct them back to http://www.jahia.org. In addition, the copyright
notice must remain visible to all users at all times at the bottom of
the user interface screen. When users click on the copyright notice,
it must direct them back to http://www.jahia.org.
