Should OCI also register "runc" as a trademark? #12

Assigning to @caniszczyk since he has the next action of getting input from Linux Foundation colleagues.

The feedback from LF Legal was that they are OK moving forward with registering runc, however, the proper avenue is to delegate this decision to the Trademark Board via a vote, which then when approved, LF Legal will move forward.

Just an update here, this doc has the latest draft: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zwv3tr_wJ-5y2DRJOWlkK9rrK2WNIGmi1Slx33gkU0I/edit?usp=sharing

Please look this over @RobDolinMS and we can send it out to the TB in a week or two for approval

The decision for this was to move forward with trademarking "runc"

The TB is currently voting to approve this recommendation from the OCI CertWG: https://groups.google.com/a/opencontainers.org/forum/#!topic/trademark-board/5zJG7dJGiZM

The TB voted to approve the recommendation from the CertWG.

I am working with LF Legal to move forward with this, thanks everyone for voting/contributing.
