Existing ASF policy has this to say: - "All PMCs must to comply with the Apache Project Branding Requirements.” [1] - “PMCs are directly responsible for ensuring all of their project's web content complies with the Apache Project Branding Requirements.” [2] - "PMCs are responsible for evaluating and if needed addressing any infringing use of their project's marks by third parties” [3] In regards to naming: - "All top level projects (TLPs) must use the format Apache Foo for their branding” [4] - "The primary branding for any project or product name must be in the form of "Apache Projectname”. " [5] - "The first and most prominent references to a project or product on every page, and uses in page titles or headers, must use the "Apache Projectname" form of the name. “ [5] This is one reason why every single poding report asks, “Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?”. In short, IMO, using the short name would not be in line with current policy, but that is probably more of a question for trademarks. For instance, it might be OK if the page made it very clear that this was an ASF project and the users were downloading “Apache Foo” and included appropriate trademark attribution.
