Hi Joey,
Just to add to this info, Debianshop has the same contact details (address,
phone)
as CheapLinux (www.cheaplinux.com) which incidentally recognises the Linux
trademark by adding at the bottom of all its pages: 'Linux is a trademark of
Linus
Torvalds. All trademarks acknowledged.'
sorry for the linebreaks, i thought they were added,
regards,
andreas

the www.debianshop.com which is 'For everything Debian'. The 'Announcement
About the Debian Trademark' insists that 'no business use the name "Debian" in
the name of the business, or a domain name of the business'. Even if Debianshop
is initially OK by using a portmanteau version of the word (Debian+shop) it
misleads
- on the top of its website - by breaking it back to two separately
sized/fonted words
with multiple spaces in between or even in different lines. Only by reaching
the
bottom of the page tiny disclaimer 'Debianshop is not officially related to the
Debian
project' did I realise that the site was not a debian.org shop.

Could you repeat the mail (with inserted linebreaks though) to
debian-legal@lists.debian.org or [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- or give
permission to me forwarding it to debian-legal.
Regards,
Joey
