This is especially true when an
employee of the foundation implies that playing it safe and assuming
the foundation does hold a copyright interest and is a publisher is
somehow a violation of trademark law.
To be perfectly clear, Anthony, I stated that our name (and logo) are
trademarked. That is unquestionable. The books were listed as being created the
Foundation, yet we had no knowledge of it. In other words, the publisher used
our trademarked name on a book without the agreement of the Foundation. While I
am not assuming malicious intent, that is clearly unacceptable. Don't twist
what I said.
