I should have mentioned that I've seen that page.  I don't think it 
states the licensing of those logos and it doesn't talk about who can 
use them and whether there are any restrictions for what they can be 
used with.  The thing that page does cover is what's allowed in terms of 
derivatives of the foot logo and what transformations can be applied.

So unless I'm reading that page wrong or I'm missing something, it 
doesn't answer my question.

Is it the case that anyone can use Gnome branding?

That's great!  I'm not in any rush.  I'll just keep on keeping on for 
the time being.

The only issue that exists right now is that short of a few dents and a 
blog entry from John (J5), I don't think there's been much mention of 
the Gnome Miro Community site.  I don't think many people know about it. 
 If the plan involves using Gnome Miro Community, the plan also needs 
to make the site more prominent.
