Hi all,
Short translation is that there is a patent claim which references to >>> PivotTable as trademark of Microsoft Corporation. Within the last >>> years this was always named as reason why OOo needs to use the term >>> "Datapilot" - I have no idea if (and how) this situation did change >>> recently. In fact there might be an agreement between Oracle and MS >>> which covers OOo .. but surely not LibO. >>> >>> Any ideas on this? >>> Well, the people at Sun were right. http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4009:rmqegm.2.1 PIVOTTABLE is a registered federal US trademark, assigned to Microsoft Corp. It is also registered at least in France. At the European Community Trademark Office : http://esearch.oami.europa.eu/copla/trademark/data/000943019 and no doubt elsewhere in the world.
