Benson Margulies commented on PODLINGNAMESEARCH-1:
--------------------------------------------------

The following remark might belong on trademarks@. Not all Apache projects have 
the ambition of making a showy name for themselves in the marketplace of ideas. 
This one, I suspect, particularly not. Does Foundation policy require a 
defensible trademark, or merely avoiding infringement of someone else's?

What about Apache Ratty, leading to a host of 'Wind in the Willows' humor?
