Well actually that isn't the case. The reason AFAIK that the Linux
trademark became such a headliner is that some blow hard that didn't
have anything to do with Linux trademarked it, and then lost a
subsequent court case to Linus on retrieval of the mark.
Since Linus has had the mark it has been enforced and there has been a
policy in place.
Don't get me wrong, I am all for an official policy on the PostgreSQL
trademark that is determined by Core and/or a neutral official entity
such as a non-profit.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
