[FOSS4G-Oceania] Motion: logo permission

[Alex Leith]

I think the points that Martin is raising are important, and there are a
lot of things like the logo copyright question that we really should handle
formally.

But, we are a small group of volunteers, and we need to be pragmatic!

I think we have achieved a good balance with John's motion here.
