There have been slight concerns over the years, with a small number of people greatly concerned that Commons carries non-free WMF utility images as well as the free media.
The obvious solution is that WMF should free license its logotypes. I'm sick and tired of having to deal with this crazy policy as soon as our chapter wants to print t-shirts or anything such. I made a design for a copyright-free alternative logotype for Wikimedia Sverige, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WMSE_threecrowns.png and I think we could go on to design our own logotype for the Swedish Wikipedia. Why not?
We're lucky Creative Commons doesn't claim copyright to its logo. It's used in millions of places on WMF sites.
