My (layman's) opinion is that the only sense in which the PSF can
"conflict" with your plan is by denying you use of the trademark. But
that's unlikely. I think that we should certainly support you either
way you choose. I don't speak for the PSF, but that's my opinion.

If you choose the broader mandate, you might want to adopt the PSF's
mandate statement:
