I am starting discussions with Sun's lawyers on behalf of this community
to see what we can do about the use of the TM and name. The end result
as I see it is to have more freedom with it's use. Whether for this
distro or to create my own tshirt or print up a poster. I will follow up
with options.

This thread is growing out of control, so can I please make a suggestion.
Everybody stop, calm down, and let's all enjoy the weekend. Logical
arguments are fine, but the messages now are getting into name-calling
and accusations. There's no call for that here. We're too nascent a
community to already start fragmenting over something that isn't even
*technology*. We're arguing about a name here. Keep that in mind.
So the main point of contention is about the use of the name
"OpenSolaris". We can argue all we want about what Sun wants, and
about what the community wants. (And if you've read my replies, you
know how I feel already - I won't reiterate it here).
Why don't we just make it a poll? We've got the whizzy polling
infrastructure.... instead of bickering back and forth like
schoolkids, let's put it up to a vote.
cheers,
steve
