I don't think anyone needs to pay anything.  If we announced that the
SL policy is for "Sugar on a Stick" to be reserved for SoaS-Fedora
only, I'd consider the name to be protected and owned.

There can be a different conversation about what would happen if, even
after we said that, someone refused to follow it.  That seems pretty
unlikely, though, given that SL is small enough that we know all of
the actors personally.

- Chris.
