I really don't want to poke in any further, but just to make this clear for the other readers of this thread:
[...] the first set was offlist, but when that set was not answered adequately I restated the questions on the list.
Just want to make clear that I had answered the offlist question immediately, several hours before Daniel asked the same question again on this list. My answer even included an apology. So I hope you understand why -- after Daniel pretended not to have received my reply and asked me the same question again on this list -- I got the impression he wanted to annoy me.
My original offlist email to you was made quickly and thus may not have been as clear as it should have been. I apologize if that is the case. I also want to be clear that I think your use of Wikipedia content is absolutely wonderful. The only issues I had pertained to the use of the trademark that went well-beyond giving credit. All the major issues and most of the minor ones now seem to be moot due to your quick changes - at least as far as the webpage is concerned. I still have not heard whether or not the logo that appears to be on a splash/intro screen on the iPod has been removed (IANAL, but if images are allowed in articles on the iPod, then, of course, the logo would be fair use in the article about Wikipedia ; but fair use would not apply to use on an intro/loading/splash screen).
Our legal officer will have a standard trademark and logo use agreement ready in a while though.
