For the sake of example it was easier to say that than go into Apaches name rules. I considered saying geo search for Solr (which apache still doesn't like) and those games (geo search on apache solr) or leaving solr out all together, but it just muddied the point for no reason. The actual name doesn't really matter for the point ;) if you actually want to do this, talk to your lawyers :) Solr: geo search edition Is just clearer for the fictional example without getting into name legalities. I wouldn't choose geo search edition for a name either, solr in front of it or not.

Oh well though. So it goes. Its Apache - they could package it all up,
hide the code under the covers, put a notice saying some work was
derived from Solr, call it Solr: geo search edition,

Actually, no, they cannot call it "Solr: geo search edition". They can call it something else, but they can't call it Solr.
