This language concerns me. The way you've worded your email implies that because the committer list is WSO2 dominated, then WSO2 has some sort of say here, and we may as well not even talk about it. Of course, this is not the case at all. We could change the branding today, if we felt like it. All it would take is for someone to start the discussion on dev, and gather some consensus around the idea. -- NS
