Perhaps GEANT should contact SecureW2 and charge them a licence fee for using 
the eduroam trademark on their website ;-)

Particularly as on the eduroam.org website under trademark information it 
states:

"The use of any eduroam trademarks by a third party must be agreed with the 
GÉANT Association beforehand and must be used in a manner that does not 
create potential confusion over the source of eduroam.”
