Re: ORTC logo - donated by Hookflash

Does the current webrtc.org logo belong to the W3C or IETF WGs or is it
open source MIT license or what is the deal there?

One of my concerns was that if we used that logo as a stepping off point
there would be trademark or the same IPR concerns.

Yes, also not interested in beating this to death, was just trying to do
something nice for the CG frankly.
