For my part (and OBO IBM), have gone out of my way to transfer worldwide trademarks (and domain names, including openwhisk,org) to the ASF working with our IP and legal teams and caused a complete product rename as we entered Incubation. There is no intentional use of OpenWhisk, any that appears is legacy and if IBM control I promise to do my utmost to fix and resolve. In some cases, and IMO it is desirable to acknowledge and credit Apache OpenWhisk as both the basis for the Serverless platform, as well as providing the programming model (components) used in development and deployment.
Again, there is nothing IBM is trying to do intentionally to give the appearance of owning the name OpenWhisk. As mentioned, I have begun acting on the GitHub project listed where I know the owners (and trying to locate the others, but snce github names do not map to real names this requires some work). -Matt On 2019/06/09 13:37:47, Justin Mclean <jus...@classsoftware.com> wrote: > Hi, > > > I conclude that all are left over from before the project entered the > > Apache Incubator and the period of transition that followed. > > I though that was the case bur was just checking.
