My concern is that a "PLC" if anyone looks it up on Google for example, is exactly the opposite of what Inkscape is. If it's important that Inkscape is seen as charity, then we should not use the abbreviation "PLC" for anything. If it doesn't matter, then PLC is fine. And yes, Conservancy is "Conservancy". Not The Conservancy.  :)

For legal documents this is true. Though we use PLC quite widely. We
should just be careful with public facing communications like the
website team page, wiki pages, chat room names, news articles, tweets,
that sort of thing.

PLC is so well known in Europe that it's often used a short-hand for "a
 generic business" so you'll hear things like "UK PLC" which is a cute
way the press refers to the UK government.
