The important thing here is this avoids what happened with (and sorry i have to mention this ) #wordpress where one guy personally ran the org that guided the development of the software and then created dependencies on a central site he personally owns to control updates and access to plugins
Ownership of #trademark terms are important and open structures for things like.joinmastodon.org is as well
