Re: CakePhp related domain

2011-11-12 Thread Sam Sherlock
So transfer the ownership of the domain and use the hosting you have
purchased for another enterprise of your own.

Why should your outlay for the hosting be covered by the sale of this
domain?

Consider the benefit you have gained from using cake.

A little gratitude may the correct action in this case rather than legal

Hi Sam,

Its hosted on Hostdime and not Godaddy.

Actually, this having become more of a big deal than I thought, I
might just keep it and place ads if nothing better comes up.

Thanks for the idea.

Ironic that hosting is on godaddy as cake fan problematic on those servers.

The domain is of little value really, the hosting is of no value. As cake
foundation could host it on existing servers.

As for someone taking the package from you you should rethink perhaps
partner with some other development make something of value to the cake
community - you could cover some losses via advertising & referrals
(covering you total outlay is expecting too much)

Re: CakePhp related domain

2011-11-12 Thread Sandy

Hi phpMagpie,

The $200 is not for the domain registration, but because I have paid
the hosting in advance, which is valid until 2013 and can be kept by
anyone interested in the domain. I cannot get a refund for this so I
at least would like to get this part back.

The auction is because I got into GoDaddy Auctions for free as a
bundle with another purchase. I'm not interested in more.

As Mike says, if you are truly doing this to benefit the CakePHP
community, transferring it to the foundation or someone who will do
good with the domain (which you state is your desired outcome) without
trying to make a profit (no matter how small) would make more sense.
 Not doing this makes your statement about domain squatters seem more
of a threat to encourage a community member to buy the domain rather
than a genuine concern.
As for recouping your registration fees, the domain was first
registered in 2007 and has been dropped once and moved registrar a few
times so I would guess you're not the first owner.  So, at tops I
would say you've paid 4 years registrations, I would find a different
registrar if paying $50 a year for .com domains, but why should
someone else pay for the fact you have not found the time to develop
the site in those 4 years, that's not their fault?
I have to admit, you've touched a sore subject for me here as I really
dislike the practice of buying domains, do nothing with then then
trying to sell at a profit.  You've added ZERO value to the domain
(the only value of this domain is the CakePHP trademarked name).  This
put's you on a very similar level as a ticket tout in my eyes and by
stating in your OP that you're considering auction, this shows you
would really like more than $200.

squatters then passing it on to someone to use it is worth that. Otherwise let

Incidentally, as a developer who has benefitted from the work of the cakephp 
foundation, perhaps donating it and some cash is more in order?

Seems like nominative use to me. Though I do agree that the Cake
Foundation should protect its rights.

Re: CakePhp related domain

2011-11-11 Thread Sandy

Yes, this domain is mine. I am a CakePHP developer and wanted to blog
about my experience, but I have not been able to find time to do so.

I re-researched and feel fair, nominative use is valid in this case.

Nominative fair use is established when:
 - The product cannot be readily identified without using the
trademark;
 - Only so much of the trademark is used as is necessary for the
identification; and
 - No sponsorship or endorsement of the trademark owner is suggested
by the use.

(

)

More info is also available from the Electronic Frontier Foundation:
https://www.eff.org/issues/bloggers/legal/liability/IP#trademark and
other websites.

Re: CakePhp related domain

2011-11-11 Thread Larry E. Masters
Sandy,

I am not sure where you checked on this being "fair use" but I an guarantee
it does not fall under fair use.

You have the option of removing it yourself, or as I said, I can have a
take down notice sent. The Cake Software Foundation, Inc protects its
trademarks and copyrights it owns and does so to protect our community of
users. If an organization does not protect their trademarks, they run a
chance of forfeiting them. I have been through this process a few times
since the foundation was formed.

Re: CakePhp related domain

I thoroughly researched this beforehand and this falls under "fair
use" for trademarks as it is used nominatively and does not cause
confusion. If not, alot of similar websites would also have to be
shutdown (Google "photoshop tutorials", "excel tutorials" or similar
to see a great list of websites that use trademarks legally in the
same fashion).

In my opinion its better for a CakePHP programmer to use it and not
some domain squatter, which is why I'm including it here.

Re: CakePhp related domain

2011-11-10 Thread Sandy Wilkins

I investigated beforehand and this is fair use of a trademark. I'm not
trying to impersonate or cause confusion among CakePHP users by making
a CakePHP tutorial site... the word CakePHP is used nominatively.

If this were true, then many sites that contain trademarked names
would have to be closed, for example:

photoshoptutorials.ws/
www.photoshopstar.com/
www.officetutorials.com/
excelhelp.org/
www.excelforum.com/

and tons more.
