Research direction

Review the current content on mobyproject.org and compare the requested guidance with the Apache Software Foundation Trademark Policy linked in the issue. Determine where ownership, licensing, and permitted Moby brand use should be documented, then publish clear guidance that explains who owns the brand and how community members may use it.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It would be great to have some clarity around who owns the Moby brand and how do they license it out. This information would be great to have on https://mobyproject.org/

For a good example feel free to take a look at the ASF Trademark Policy https://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/

Without this clarification it really isn't quite clear how community friendly Moby brand really is
