Silly question for you all:
Is http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimedia_cake.jpg actually
copyrighted to the WMF as a WMF logo? The cake was made for Wikimedia
UK, so it's technically a derivative work, perhaps...
Any ideas what the copyright status of this should be? Does the author
(Jezhotwells) have the ability to release it under a free licence, if
s/he wishes?
