Dave, After our chat I fully support what you are doing. LibreOffice does not have a trademark policy yet, hence it is not against the rules to use it, and you have not bypassed a system which gives authority to use the trademark because it does not exist yet.
I second Ben. You are doing a great job and although there are some in the community who communicate aggressively I am sure the bulk of the community will support anyone with good intentions and motivation to get stuff done.
