You're misportraying the facts; it's a preexisting Apache policy that predates OOo being proposed as a podling. Now, we're generally reasonable people here, and the podling can always request an exception (talk to trademarks@). But, with my Member hat on, this collective "Let's join Apache, but not be called Apache, and not work with existing Apache entities" spirit leaves a rather bad taste.
