Thanks 4 the link Z. I see the Nature Publishing Group logo on their site.
They do use NPG so I guess they feel slighted by all the NPG Music Club
publicity.

RE: NPNY: NPGMC "hiatus" linked to July 3 trademark/legal status?

2006-07-07 Thread Oliver, Damon
This is unusual, previously I never saw that nature publication when
googling  NPG, but I did d it recently and it came up, but didn't pay it
any attention. This could be as big a battle maybe as when WWE (formerly
WWF) was sued by World Wildlife Fund for trademark infringement.

Some more info can be found at the HQ thread.

The challenge is coming from HM Publishing Holdings LTD which
publishes "Nature" magazine. Apparently the NPGMC application
indicated that it would sell books/publications and HM Publishing has
the rights to "NPG" (Nature Publishing Group) although it is for
science/medicine. This can probably be cleared up with further
clarification from NPGMC's attorneys one supposes.
