I'm sure that this is a correct legal statement for the purposes of
the present day FOSDEM trademark.  However. The evidence surrounding
the event has been somewhat obfuscated by various events and
activities dating back to about 1994/1995.  Also. I remember you
making a public statement back in 2001 in front of myself and the
assembled crowd that OSDEM only started in 2001. When in fact it had
been around for a while. I noticed that someone was telling you some
not quite correct stories about something.

Never mind. I'm sure that people will enjoy FOSDEM 2020 and hopefully
it will continue for some years to some :)
