That's a reasonable move. The trick w brands is to show that you
control the brands and logos...

This means that you are expected to set some rules and complain to
people (and eventuallysend C&D) who don't follow them.

So now, from the dept of out-of-the-box-ideas:

One of the rules may be: use of logos A, C and B is restricted. Logo D
is unrestricted, redistributable, etc for use in community efforts
without having to ask for permission.

Would that help? Unrestricted logos saying "SugarLabs::Community" or
"Friend of SugarLabs"?

cheers,
