That is my impression as well.

I removed the draft conclusions on the report page (thanks for setting
it up!) since we're not close to having most of the DP members weigh
in yet on any of the questions.

I'm abstaining on the first question unless stronger arguments present
themselves (the two sides of the argument don't seem to be speaking
directly to one anothers' issues, which is frustrating),

waiting on the second until we have more clarity on language -- on
what support, neutrality, and inclusion mean,

waiting on the third until until we have a bit more clarity on
language -- for instance, I think that it's reasonable for SL as a
community to have a "don't be confusing" policy that applies equally
to all of its projects, and that has nothing to do with trademark per
se.
