The ASF has a recorded Software Grant that includes the trademark along with
a specific list of source code files.

I have not yet seen the specific grant of the trademark itself at the ASF yet (i.e. legal documents officially transferring ownership within the USPTO
here in the US).

As best I understand, the ASF does not currently own the trademark, but the intent of both Oracle and the ASF is that the trademark will be transferred to the ASF once the appropriate legal paperwork is completed. I presume,
and will follow up, to ensure this includes the graphical logo with the
seagulls.

Question: is anyone here aware of any registrations of "OpenOffice.org" or
the logo or other related marks in other countries besides the US?

Hi
I found it in the E.U. database, look like it's registered (with the logo).
You can check there searching "openoffice" (can't paste result url..) :

http://tmview.europa.eu/tmview/basicSearch.html

I've got the BOPI for France if you're interested in.

Kind regards
Sophie

Yes, please. If anyone has direct links to specific registration numbers and where they're held of either "OpenOffice.org" (which we're talking about here) or "Open Office" (which some other organizations have in at least Europe) they'd be very helpful. I posted a link to the Benelux registration of "Open Office" by that company in the Netherlands.

The best place to send those is tradema...@apache.org, a privately archived list where we organize trademark policy for the ASF.

Thanks!
