Hi Jian, We had the same problem with wayang (formerly rheem). You need to check the trademarks in section 9 of: US, EU, India, CN
as well as github, bitbucked, web We developed a gsheet with our champion to find a name which is able to trademark, and has some relation to our project. Please note, when your project graduate to an TLP, all this ™ issues come along. And later it’s a real large task with INFRA to rebrand / rename everything. So typically we love to see those issues solved in the incubation process. Stay safe, —alex Sent from my iPhone > On 14.
