They have to change the name to Apache OpenOffice (TM).

Question at all on the list. Do we have a special Logo for Consultants,
or this is just nominative use?

I dont see a problem. 

The company offers support for OpenOffice since 1995 and not support for "Apache
OpenOffice TM".
Support for "Apache OpenOffice TM" the company offers *only* since 2011 (i 
think).

OK, we can write:


 in-put GbR has been offering consulting, migration, trainings and support 
for
OpenOffice.org since 1995.


but *incorrectly* is:


 in-put GbR has been offering consulting, migration, trainings and support 
for
Apache OpenOffice TM since 1995.

P.S.
@Raphael, (sorry for german):

Ich habe diese Firma bereits gebeten ihre Webseite zu überarbeiten und sie haben
das *bereitwillig* getan. 
Weißt Du wie unangenehm es ist offlist Firmen unsere überpenible
Rechtswahrnehmungspolitik zu erklären, wenn ich mir (stellvertretend für uns 
alle
hier) anhören muß das nicht einmal kommerzielle Rechtsinhaber solchen Zeck 
treiben
wie wir.

Look at it in context:  http://www.openoffice.org/bizdev/consultants.html

The consultants directory is in a page that already has the standard
website header, and the logo already says "Apache OpenOffice (TM)".
And the page footer already says, "OpenOffice.org and the seagull logo
are registered trademarks of The Apache Software Foundation."

I don't think we need to also put (TM) on every use of "OpenOffice" in
the text of the page as well.  It is generally sufficient to declare
the trademark on the first mention of the term.

I assume you are talking about these pages, where they use the logo:
http://www.in-put.de/software/index.html and
http://www.in-put.de/software/openoffice/index.html ??

I think this is covered by this policy FAQ:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/faq/#integrateswith

If I'm reading this correctly, they would need to add two things to
the website, in order to comply with this policy:

1) Make the logo link to www.openoffice.org

2) Add a note on the page that says that acknowledges the logo as an
ASF trademark, e.g., "The OpenOffice.org orb and seagull logo is a
registered trademark of The Apache Software Foundation."
