I don't think it says that, but I also don't think that it can work like
this. If I disappear or disband the Krita Foundation (which owns the
trademark), then how would this transfer be implemented? It's probably
something that will be specific for each situation, but as it is, I'm
totally unsure how this is supposed to work in practice.
Another aspect is to consider the difference between a registered trademark and
a non-registered one. Registered trademarks ® are regulated Intellectual
Property, for which one pays a fee and has rights and duties. It can only be
ceded through a proper contract. I'm not sure a verbal contract or the
manifesto would serve, here.
Right, that's an important distinction. I'm only concerned with the
registered trademark here -- the piece of grey recycled paper I paid 2000
euros for :-)
A non-registered trademark ™ is just anything you claim as an identifying
mark.
