The second one looks nicer to the eyes, and the entity is really the same,
just changed name,
so I guess it's ok to go with the simpler version?
The former is more precise though... anyone with enough legal insight to
nudge us in one

Should we ask on osgeo-discuss, lots of people there, it may be that
someone knows?
