Actually... I will go further, is the association planning to be part of Wikimedia chapters or is it fully an independant association ?
What are the implications of being a an official chapter? If it means being suable in place of the WMF, we very expressly do not want to be a chapter. If it does not, I don't see any harm. As to the names and logos, I believe it has always been the intention that the organisation incorporate as "Wiki Educational Resources" (well, that as opposed to Wikimedia UK), and then to agree a licensing arrangement with the Foundation proper after that for use of the name (i.e. to be "trading as") and logos.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
