Unfortunately, Christian's original question was unclear. If his plan had been to release "Python 2.8" (as his original question suggested), then he would have faced quite some opposition (and, in a sense, releasing a "python28.dll" is quite close to that). IMO, calling it "Stackless Python 2.8" is fine, and I also believe that this complies with the current trademark policy. The objective of this policy is to give Python companies equal choices in naming their products, i.e. nobody would be allowed to call something "Python" without further qualification (except for the traditional CPython release).
