It was my understanding gained last week was that Linaro is a separate
organization, and that while folk are working for Linaro, stuff they
create belongs to Linaro and not the company whose office they happen
to be sitting in.

I also thought Linaro was supposed to be an organization for solving
the _common_ problems being experienced by each member organization,
rather than being a contracting house to any one particular
organization.  Am I mistaken?
