Not really. The Linux trademark has very clearly defined rules about who
can use it and how. It is also very, very obvious who owns the Linux
trademark.

The PostgreSQL trademark is this vaque somebody owns it, but were not even
sure if it is enforceable and there is no written policy about it... So
we are just
going to play it safe kind of thing.
