I think it makes most sense for graduated projects; a podling project is not guaranteed to graduate from the Incubator and might choose to say move to a GitHub-only model. This could then require a project rename beyond removing "Apache", as ASF would have the trademark registration and there might not be a new legal entity to move the trademark to. But that said, I don't think there's anything stopping such a registration for podlings - not sure if policy-wise that would need to include "(incubating)", which perhaps would look odd in a trademark. -- Stian Soiland-Reyes http://orcid.org/0000-0001-9842-9718 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
