Jacques, you are mis-interpreting the contents of that ASF document and I really would prefer it if you kept your thoughts to the private list. This way we can correct you before you start scaring people away from marketing the project for us.

>> I should be pretty clear at this moment. The works "Apache" "OFBiz" and the phrase "Apache OFBiz" are ASF trademarks: http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/ (I use references to sections of this page in the following)
>> So they can't be used in domain name (cf. section "Using Apache trademarks in domain names"). Hans can't use http://twitter.com/apache_ofbiz alone as an individual or for his company. This is a domain name: twitter.com This is a URL: twitter.com/apache_ofbiz So the first half of your message is completely invalid and threatening to contact higher level ASF admins before discussing it on the private list is bad form IMO. Secondly, use of the OFBiz name and logo on service provider websites absolutely falls within the realm of nominative fair use IMO. How are you supposed to offer development and support services for OFBiz if you cannot mention the name OFBiz and display the logo? The fact that some logo uses do not link back to the project is a minor issue and can easily be rectified without scaremongering by sending a polite message directly to the service provider in question. Let's be clear, we want people to market OFBiz for us because we do not have the resources to do an adequate job of it ourselves. The thing that I think we should be most concerned about and actively "police" is what is written at the bottom of the ASF guideline document: "Nothing in this ASF policy statement shall be interpreted to allow any third party to claim any association with the Apache Software Foundation or any of its projects or to imply any approval or support by ASF for any third party products or services." We should be encouraging people to market OFBiz and instead of sending out threatening emails. And lastly, haven't there been enough arguments on the dev list for one week? Do you really need to spark another one right now? Constant bickering just makes us all look bad.
