I'm not a legal advisor. 1. Trisquel trademark is owned by Ruben.
2. Neither Trisquel GNU/Linux is owned by a single person or entity nor any other GNU/Linux distribution (like Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc). A lot of programmers have invested their time and life to develop many separate pieces of software which we glue together to make a GNU/Linux distribution. These separate packages have their own copyright holders but they have given us (or any other person) the right to modify, and redistribute their code under certain conditions (free-software licenses).
3. 'Asociacion Trisquel' is a nonprofit organization under Spanish law formed to handle legal aspects needed for development of this GNU/Linux distribution.
4. We cannot conclude who the owner of an organization is by considering who receives stipends from the organization. Nonprofit organizations can pay salary to their employees.
