Well, I didn't specifically ask permission ... but I kind of assumed  
that, since Mailman is GPL, the logo fell under the same license.


It is.  The FSF owns it.

The Official Mailman group for LinkedIn is at .  As far as I'm concerned, you're welcome to keep your unofficial  
group if you like, but this one will be maintained by me and others  
who provide official support for the Mailman project.


If I knew the group existed, I would not have created mine.   
LinkedIn really needs to get their act together and create a group  
directory or search function.


I assumed that such a group did not exist because I found Barry's  
profile on LinkedIn and didn't see such a group reference on his  
profile.


I don't know, I'm one of those near-dinosaurs that kind of  
participates in social networks when hit in the face by them, but  
otherwise to paraphrase a wise man: I fear change. :)

this graphic.


Technically I believe the logos are GPLd and owned by the FSF, so as  
long as their use honors the license, it should be allowed.  To the  
extent that my blessing means anything :) I think it's fine as long as  
it's used in a positive spirit to the betterment of the Mailman  
community.


As long as there are useful distinctions between the groups, I think  
it's fine to have more than one.  David's appears to be for folks who  
are administering Mailman lists.
