Re: Indian new rupee sign

Hey everybody, I wasn't serious about the Ryerson logo. My point was that those of us who are not IPR lawyers shouldn't pretend to be IPR lawyers. The UTC and WG2 and Indian government can figure out for themselves what legal obstacles, if any, need to be overcome before the rupee sign can be en

RE: Indian new rupee sign

The real question IMHO is whether the Ryerson company will be able to sue the Indian government for appropriating a too-similar logo. http://www.ryerson.com/ I wonder how many people on this list who are expressing legal opinions are actually licensed to practice law anywhere. -- Doug Ewell | Th
