Hi ALL,

Ten years ago, this probably wouldn't have been high on many people's
agendas. However, things have moved on, and caselaw has come in most
countries, certainly those where LO is already used quite widely, where
such use of trademarks could be considered to be problematic :

- under the "meta-tag", or "Google Adwords" doctrine approach, which has
most notably been important in Europe ;

- under various trademark dilution doctrines ;

- actions tending to cause a mark to become generic despite the TM
owner's indications/attempts to dissuade that (note that the MS page
pointed to by Bjoern takes particular pains to tell users how to use the
mark in order to avoid this problem, even though it may not be
specifically mentioned).

So, my personal take on this would be to leave well alone and not use
them.

Alex
