This is something new. I don't think this issue has surfaced for a long time.
So it is true that one cannot publish a literary work for profit and even use the word "permaculture" in the text, title
or description, i.e. that the publication is _about_ "permaculture"?
Permaculture as a movement and as an umbrella discipline, offering much to the world, is extremely important and should
not be subject to restrictions of this nature.
What's the final word on trademark restrictions on use of the word
permaculture, if any?
