Without wanting to comment particularly on the details of the situation...
I just wanted to point out that I have had a connection with hh.org since at least late 2000 (the earliest mailing list post I can find by myself from a quick look), while never a core or hugely active developer. For the record, George is a genuinely good guy, who has contributed hugely to the Linux community with his far-beyond-the-call-of-duty work on hh.org, and while I'm not going to say that he's automatically right, I believe absolutely that he is trying to do the right thing. There may be a disagreement, but I cannot believe there's any maliciousness or self-aggrandisation involved on George's part.
Oh, and while looking for my history in the mail archives, I found this post which would appear to be one of the first mentions, possible the very first, of GPE in a hh,org context...

So what is George's motivation here? What does he want to do with the trademarks that he's so carefully hoarding?Whose project is it anyway?
