There is a potentially significant trademark problem (hence moving this to trademarks@): "The following uses of ASF trademarks are probably infringing:.... Software service offerings that are for anything other than official ASF-distributed software." and "You may not use ASF trademarks such as "Apache" or "ApacheFoo" or "Foo" in your own domain names if that use would be likely to confuse a relevant consumer about the source of software or services provided through your website" http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/ Ross > > Idel (owner of AMF) > > On 4 October 2012 14:36, Bertrand Delacretaz <bdelacre...@apache.org> wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> On Thu, Oct 4, 2012 at 2:10 PM, Matthias Wessendorf <mat...@apache.org> >> wrote: >> > https://twitter.com/smashingmag/status/253794604967669760 >> > >> > searching in my mail-account for 'apachemobilefilter' I do see it >> > being mentioned with the DeviceMap proposal - but is that project >> > _closely_ connected ?... >> >> That project has been mentioned on the devicemap dev list, >> http://markmail.org/message/yfmu5h3n2tggy33n , but nothing more so >> far. >> >> > >> > ...I think the following sentence is/was kinda confusing: >> > "Apache Mobile Filter is the easiest way to detect mobile devices. >> > AMF is a suite of tools that allow access to a Device Repository (such >> > as WURFL, DetectRight, 51Degrees or others) directly from Apache"... >> >> I agree that the "Apache Mobile Filter" name might give the impression >> that that's an Apache project, but it's not, what that really is is a >> "Mobile Filter for the Apache HTTP server". >> >> -Bertrand >> >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- >> To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org >> For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org >> >> -- Ross Gardler (@rgardler) Programme Leader (Open Development) OpenDirective http://opendirective.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
