Hey, I just saw that Synapse has *similar* task, not same. It starts with "If applicable, make ...". Is this b/c there is no free section on nameprotect.com or no "apache account" ?

Hey, Since the name "ADF Faces" is only a temporary one, we ask our community to vote on a name (We filtered the suggested names, because some are already used for software products; filtering means: using google by combining name + software). The result was "Trinidad". So the name for the Podling is now "Apache Trindidad". To be save about the name and our status (see [1]) file contains the following section, I'd like to know the *process details* on the "trademark issue". <snip> Make sure that the requested project name does not already exist and check www.nameprotect.com to be sure that the name is not already trademarked for an existing software product. </snip> Since "www.nameprotect.com" is not free to use, we did already the following: Our committer "Adam Winer" did a research on "Trinidad" regarding US Trademarks: http://tinyurl.com/lebb8 and a user "Frank Felix Debatin" did the same for German Trademarks: http://tinyurl.com/ohfds Both came up that there are *only* Trademarks against Trinidad against Rum, Cigar and Tobacco. Now we don't know, is that what we've done so far is enough? I'd like to contribute this "informations" to the incubator site, because it is very important for others, but not sure if we are done or almost done, and what is still missing on the *crucial* trademark thing. Thanks! -Matt
