This was actually a suggestion made by SPI's lawyer and it was not connected to the Adamantix/Trusted Debian issue except that it occurred on the spi-trademark mailing list created, in part, in response to the issue. Martin was only pushing the advice of our lawyer who, while perhaps not the person who knows how best to keep our website simple and streamlined, is the person who knows best know how to keep our trademark in our hands.
