Started collecting some notes on existing and pending Logo Copyright/Trademark/Legal requirements.
Early days and there are probably better ways to proceed but this might help start the ball rolling.

First thing you find is always specific prohibition
and thus the need for a legal dept.

- Problematic:
"You may not change any logo except to scale it. This means you may not add elements to the logo, change the colors or proportions of the logo, distort the logo, or combine the logo with other logos."

It would be the safe option. I would hope they (and most) would respond positively to an approach for specific permission as not only is this good promotion/inclusion of their project(s) but your work is beautifully and respectfully done. As a long-time DBA the one that worries me most is a trademarked O ;-)
