This might be a real issue, but I'm not certain about that. Essentially they're saying that you can't use other people's trademarks without their permission. What this *probably* really means (and probably should say) is that this license is not a grant of trademark rights. It's probably the case that that's how a court would interpret that clause. Then again, it's probably ok to suggest that they make this clearer. Thanks, -- Raul
