It's still a trademark agreement for the main trademark (i.e.
wikimedia), but not any others that the WMF holds, which I guess
includes wikipedia et al.

I've just thought - does the board have a
list of the trademarks WMF
has registered in the UK? If not, such a list needs to be provided
before it makes sense to sign a license to use them. It's possible
such a list has been provided in private, but as far as I know there
is no public list available.
It's just been pointed out to me that the chapter agreement template
was changed yesterday, see
http://wikimediafoundation.org/w/index.php?
title=Agreement_between_chapters_and_Wikimedia_Foundation&diff=38296&o
ldid=26645
It seems the chapter agreement is no longer a trademark license, which
leaves me wondering what exactly it is... what is permission to call
oneself Wikimedia UK if not a license to use that trademark? Someone
needs to talk to Mike Godwin and work out what the hell is going on.
