Having written that, I guess I've just explained to myself why the ASF project should not be merely "Jini", and should either have a different name or an additional qualifier. (As for trademark issues, I'll defer to Jim Hurley to chime in.)
I agree with Bob's reasoning, and a different or qualified name might be a better choice after reflection. As Geir had mentioned... Sun's original intent (with the proposed "Jini" name of the project) was to donate the TM to the ASF. I'm not sure how that would work now (TM use -wise) with other Jini -related work and sites (for example, the jini.dev.java.net Community project area (for work around the Apache Jini project core), and the new informational Jini.org project site being worked). -Jim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
