That's the understanding I've always had, and I do try to steer clear of
that logo for any purpose.

Although I think that a logo can be justified on the basis of it giving
us a visual identity, I agree with Guillaume that using the official
wmf-logo might not be appropriate.  Perhaps any logo should be more
focused towards communication - pending its licencing (which I don't
want to check right now!), the "communications kite" shown on the
Contact Us pages on many projects seems to be a good substitute.

Thanks,

Martin.
