coreboot / Coreboot is certainly not high on the list of things that keep
me awake at night :-)
I think the world is sensitized to case not mattering that much.
COREBOOT.org and coreboot.org go to the same place; so do amd.com and
AMD.COM

Hi,
not sure if it matters, but as a data point: I'm a coreboot user since about 8
years, I didn't know about the trademark being all-lowercase, and "Coreboot"
at the start of a sentence definitively seems more harmonious to me.

AFAIK the project name has been all lowercase from the start, and I don't
see a compelling reason here to change it. To my eyes, it looks
strange/wrong when started with a capital C.
Phoronix et all can continue being wrong =D

Hi
The coreboot trademark is registered as lowercase.
We enforce this in for instance commits, even when normal grammar would
dictate uppercase at the start of a sentence.
This makes sense for very well known brands, companies and products like
"eBay", "iPhone", "AMD". They are all very well know
