The point is not to allow the use of a trademark ("EVE-Python" is
already an use of the trademark, as are "IronPython", "Cython",
"VPython", etc.), it is to respect the original project and to keep
things clear.
Even if there were no trademark, I think it would be wrong for a
separate project to adopt the same name without agreement from the
original group of contributors. I have never seen a fork which didn't
change the name of the project.
