Alec since you persist in attacking people as well as viewpoints rather than
discussing the issue, I am no longer going to answer your posts. Feel free
to flame me.
[FAUST REPEATS]
All I am saying is that ALL OF US should consider the long term
ramifications of this clause from all aspects - rather than leaping in
with expansive (and incorrect) statements that there is no use for
trademarks besides marketing. Trademarks have in the past and will be
in the future used as a competetive tool, both in an ethical fashion,
and in a unethical and predatory manner. Almost *ANYTHING* can be
claimed to be a trademark. I would (personally) prefer that the final
definition of what constitutes trademark infringement in the case of
the OGL be left up to the courts - rather than having *any use*
defined as an infringement.
