-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [LUG] Gnome vs Groupon Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2014 15:39:01 +0000 From: Brad Rogers <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Organization: Catch 22 To: DCLUG ML <[email protected]> Hello All, I don't use the Gnome DE, but that's beside the point: Groupon are launching a device called a Gnome in what is pretty much the same market that the Gnome DE is a familiar name. They've been asked by Gnome.org to pick a different name, but have refused and even filed more trademark registrations for their device. Gnome.org are seeking donations to the cause at; https://gnome.org/groupon/ Amount raised at the time I viewed was a little over $21,000, which is a tiny amount for any court case that may ensue. I've yet to decide on the size of my donation, but I shall be making one. -- Regards _ / ) "The blindingly obvious is / _)rad never immediately apparent" No you can't hop into my shower Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) - P!nk
