jendaok02:00
juliuxit is not 100% sure but it could be02:00
jendaok02:01
jendawell, try to keep free if you can - it would complicate matters a lot. But if you can't, you can't.02:02
Mike_Fjenda: I have no clue after reading the trademark stuff.02:02
jendaMike_F: in that case, write them an email :)02:03
Mike_FI that i am trying to do is recover the cost of the flash sticks02:03
jendaMike_F: I'm not a big fan of the trademark policy myself02:03
juliuxjenda, trademark policy is important02:03
jendajuliux: of course - but I think the one we have isn't right.02:03
juliuxjenda, then go to the cc;)02:04
jendafirst to tm@u.c02:04
jenda:)02:04
jendaI have an email half written - it takes a lot of concentration to get all my argumentation together :)02:04
Mike_Fi would perfer a phone call02:05
jendaI hate my english accent.02:07
jendaMike_F: and they take only emails, because they get a lot of them.02:08
jendaThey can also discuss what you wrote, etc.02:08
jendaYou have to outline what exactly you want to do, and essentially ask if its OK.02:08
