Vice-President’s Report — The State of the GNOME Foundation

Jeff Fortin Tam reportson the state of the GNOME Foundation. "Generally speaking, this yearwas a bit less intense than the one before it (we didn't have to worryabout a legal battle with a giant corporation this time around!) althoughwe did end up touching a fair amount of legal matters, such as trademarkagreements. One big item we got cleared was the Ubuntu GNOME trademarkagreement. We also welcomed businesses that wanted to sell GNOME-relatedmerchandise, you can find them listed here-supporting them by purchasingGNOME-related items also supports the Foundation with a small percentageshared as royalties."
