I think it would be fantastic for CC to engage the trademark arena. I realize
that the primary reason that CC emphasizes copyright licensing is because one
doesn't have to purchase a copyright under U.S. law, it is in essence, free.
Trademarks, like patents, are not free (at least in terms of formally
establishing them). However I am aware of the 'common law trademark' which
allows someone to use the classic 'TM' mark for material not formally
registered as a trademark. I have no idea what CC may have in mind for the
trademark issue... helping establishing a mark? Providing a license to
existing mark holders? I just think it makes since for CC to look into this
area of IP.
Thanks!
