Hi all,
I sent a patch to openstack/governance to move our project under the big
tent, and it came up [1] that we should decide of a project name and be
careful about trademarks issues with Puppet name.
I would like to hear from Puppetlabs if there is any issue to use Puppet
in the project title; also, I open a new etherpad so people can suggest
some names: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/puppet-openstack-naming
Thanks,

Emilien,
I went ahead and had a discussion with Puppet's legal team on this
issue. Unfortunately at this time we are unable to sanction the use of
Puppet's name or registered trademarks as part of the project's name.
To be clear, this decision is in no way indicative of Puppet not feeling
the project is 'worthy' or 'high quality' (in fact the opposite is
true), but rather is a purely defensive decision.
We are in the process of reevaluating our usage guidelines, but there is
no firm timetable as of this moment.
Regards,
Richard Raseley
SysOps Engineer
