Just to let you know I invite you to use whatever acronym you feel most comfortable with on xul-talk. Be it XUL, XUI, XUIL, XML-UI, XPML, XAML, UIML, UML, WML etc. It's your choice and I ask everyone to respect it.
XUL - Many already claim that this is a trademark of Mozilla. Since XUL is the only name for Mozilla's XML user interface language, there can be little doubt that the use of this term would cause confusion within the Mozilla community, whether Mozilla actually claims it as a trademark or not.
Mozilla.org claims that XUL IS a trademark : http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/licensing.html
And i confirm : the use of XUL term for other technologies than Mozilla's XML user interface language, cause confusion for newbies who discover http://xul.sourceforge.net site... Some xulfr.org users wrote it to me by email...

XML-UI - This has possibilities, but could be confused for a method of displaying XML rather than an XML language for user interfaces.
Well, why don't we use XML-UIL ? ;-)
