== Trademark subcommittee ==

''Suggested by Paul.''▼
|-
|''The [[Trademark_licence_subcommittee| Trademark licence subcommittee]] has two members of the Licensing Working Group and one board member who decide on licence requests that are covered by the [[Trademark_Policy|OSMF Trademark policy]], with the understanding that''
* ''the subcommittee has the authority to grant licences in the "quick licence" (aka licence application for which we have a form template) framework.''
* ''licence grants that are of a bespoke nature will be processed by the full LWG and potentially escalated to the [[Officers_%26_Board|OSMF board]].''
* ''licence grant refusals can be appealed to the OSMF board.''
* ''licence grants will be publicly documented in an appropriate fashion.''
''Heather Leson was the previous board member on the subcommittee, but when her term finished the board did not replace her. A board member needs to volunteer. Paul would, but his term ends next election.''
