Re: [osflash] on using the word "Flash" in your projects...

mmm....I'm not an expert in this kind of things, but common sense should be the way to deal with this. IMHO, that's a strange petition since the word "Flash" is used in a lot of things not Adobe Flash Related. "Adobe Flash" should be the trademark and not only "Flash". People could agree only to maintain good relations with Adobe but I don't think this could be mandatory.

If not Queen or DC Comics have an huge problem ;)

Just my two...

Hi,

Very bad news I guess... What about FlashCoders, FlexCoders, SubFlash,
FlashDB, FlashLA, and thousands of projects/forums that are using the
word "Flash"?

Doesn't make sense for me.
