@gabek@IzzyOnDroid@darnell but the question you asked was "who can hold a trademark", and the answer to that is clear? Any natural person or legal entity CAN hold a trademark
If what you meant was "who could hold a trademark for us so I don't have to and don't have to set up an entity", there are various non profits that do this for open source projects, such as SPI and the Software Freedom Conservancy
