Hi folks,
sorry for the late reply and the general confusion caused by my crates.
Just for completeness, my repo jankaul/iceberg-rust and the iceberg-rust
crate were created in 2022 before the apache iceberg-rust implementation
existed. The repo is not a fork of the Apache project and doesn't use
any of it's code.
I was reluctant to change it's name because it would break all the links
and references. I was hoping that describing it as the "unofficial" rust
implementation was enough to distinguish it from the official project.
But I can revisit this issue and see if I can find a solution that
provides a better distinction.
Best wishes,
Jan

Hi Kevin
Thanks for your message and let’s the community know.
I would propose to contact iceberg-rust maintainers to see the purpose
and if they are kindly accepting to revisit this.
Regards
JB

Hi everyone,
I was working on the iceberg-rust 0.5.1 release and noticed a few
crates on crates.io <http://crates.io> that seem to be unofficial
implementations or releases of iceberg-rust.
For example, the official Apache iceberg-rust repo is published
under the ` <https://crates.io/crates/iceberg>iceberg`
<https://crates.io/crates/iceberg>crate. But there’s also a crate
called ` <https://crates.io/crates/iceberg-rust>iceberg-rust`
<https://crates.io/crates/iceberg-rust>that points to a different
repo outside the Apache org.
There are a few other crates following a similar pattern.
I want to start this thread to raise awareness of the issue and
figure out the appropriate path for trademark usage. Let me know
if I should forward this to the PMC private mailing list and/or
the apache trademark email.
Best,
Kevin Liu
