Sun/Oracle has always held the trademark on JavaScript, not Mozilla. And TC39 predates the "JavaScript Renaissance" that you're talking about.

And you're right about TC39, I probably should have said "joined", not "formed", if I could edit my comment I would.

I don't think my comment was a gross misrepresentation of the historical context, though.
