Sorry yes, on re-reading your post I suspect that we don't actually disagree.

I think it's absolutely fine for someone to say that they're funding OpenSimulator development (if they are).  I think 
it's a different matter if they were to incorporate the "OpenSimulator" name directly into the name of another project 
(e.g. "OpenSimulator Fundraising Project").  It's not impossible but I feel that there should be explicit core group 
agreement for that kind of thing if we want to defend the name.
