How is the use of Python in SI going to be affected in EU? Is this going to be an issue?
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jared Sent: Monday, February 25, 2013 5:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: python trademark at risk in europe Hi I don't mean to mail un-softimage-related information but since Python is supported by softimage (and most of the other packages in the CG industry) I though this was worth a mention: "For anyone who works in a company that has an office in a EU Community member state, we need your help. There is a company in the UK that is trying to trademark the use of the term "Python" for all software, services, servers... pretty much anything having to do with a computer" ... http://pyfound.blogspot.ca/2013/02/python-trademark-at-risk-in-europe-we.html It'd probably be much cheaper for all the U.K divisions of the various companies that make use of python to team up and fight this with the python guys, rather than have to change the "python" trademark to whatever else just because some other company managed to copywrite it. -- Kind Regards, Jared Glass<mailto:[email protected]> | Technical Lead [cid:[email protected]]<http://triggerfish.co.za/en> [cid:[email protected]]<http://www.facebook.com/triggerfishanimation> [cid:[email protected]]<http://www.twitter.com/triggerfishza>
