Uh, this is brand clarification... Sometimes people (well, people who don't pay enough attention) don't get that company X is associated with product Y. Look what happend to Borland when they changed their name to Inprise but kept the old product names. For those folks who don't pay attention to every detail of goings on in the Zope community, or are not subscribed to lists, or are new to Zope, I imagine that a name discrepancy could be confusing...
I hope you aren't saying that basic, well thought-out, marketing strategies are somehow predatory behavior? Let's not even try to compare this to "hijacking" in the style of a certain Redmond-based company.
