I won't plonk you this time, idiot. Keep embarrassing yourself. MySQL won on trademark portion but lost on the GPL portion (which had nothing to do with trademarks) of its claim for preliminary injunctions.
http://pacer.mad.uscourts.gov/dc/opinions/saris/pdf/progress%20software.pdf ------ the Court finds that MySQL has demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success on that portion breach of contract claim that concerns its trademark. Specifically, MySQL has demonstrated (1) that the agreement between the parties was an interim agreement that terminated after August 2000; and (2) that Progress violated Paragraph 6 of that agreement by using the MySQL trademark after the termination and by using an unauthorized combination trademark. Continued use of the trademark will cause MySQL irreparable harm as a matter of law. [...] Accordingly, the Court orders that Progress be preliminarily enjoined, pending a trial on the merits, from: (1) Promoting or selling any products and services using the MySQL mark in any form; (2) Registering or using domain names that contain the MySQL mark; and, (3) Operating websites that use any form of the MySQL mark. Progress may, however, state that its product operates with the MySQL program. Progress shall comply with this order within 45 days. MySQL shall post a bond of $25,000.00. With respect to the General Public License (GPL), MySQL has not demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success on the merits or irreparable harm. Affidavits submitted by the parties experts raise a factual dispute concerning whether the Gemini program is a derivative or an independent and separate work under GPL ¶ 2. ----- So MySQL lost and didn't get an injunction regarding alleged violation of the GPL, retard dak. regards, alexander. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
