> Hi all, 
> 
> We are happy to announce that the Board of Trustees approved the new 
> Trademark Policy this Saturday.[1] The policy is based on a seven-month 
> consultation with the community to replace our 2009 policy. The new policy is 
> unconventional in how it provides expansive use of the Wikimedia marks. 
> Thanks to the community’s collaboration, the policy is more readable, 
> thorough, and consistent with our values.
> 
> The Board also approved our recommendation to withdraw trademark registration 
> and protection for the Community logo.[2] We will now initiate withdrawal of 
> US and worldwide registrations.
> 
> Many thanks to everyone who participated in these two consultations!

> Thanks,
