I don't see anything in the proposal about Google ceasing the use of the brand
"Google Cloud Dataflow". Yet the co-existence of "Google Cloud Dataflow" and
"Apache Dataflow" would conflict with Apache requirements for vendor
neutrality and project independence.
The issue seems similar to the recent proposal to incubate "Apache OpenMiracl"
while allowing the "Miracl" company to continue distribution of the "Miracl"
project. That situation was was resolved by renaming the Apache project to
"Milagro", allowing the Miracl company to continue benefitting from the brand
they had invested in so heavily.
