Anyway, for all I know they've already gotten permission. Who would be the one to contact about this?
No idea. But they don't need permission; they are under no legal or moral or ethical obligation to ask for it;
Wow, I'm rather surprised by that. Ohwell.
I'm not sure I understand what the problem is here. A book has been published about how to contribute to Wikipedia and some are worrying about whether we should threaten them for using "Wikipedia" in the title?
Such a book could only help Wikipedia. Firefox became too concerned with their name and it's usage, and people stopped using it (Debian) - who does that help?
Ho hmm. To clarify, by "people stopped using it", I meant people stopped using the name (not that people stopped using the software). For Debian (and other hard-FLOSS projects), Firefox's policy on the usage of their name was too non-free and it needed to be changed (to ColdWeasel, I believe).
