Right. Since "ActiveMQ" will be in its release name, you've already got your trademark bits handled, and avoided conflict with anything else. Find a codename and move along. trademarks@ isn't really needed as long as it remains a sub-name of ActiveMQ. Chris is just reacting strongly because of the past use of HornetQ, which is RH's mark. That is past, so we can skip worrying about that. I look forward to your choices, and the Board report in a couple weeks. Cheers, -g
