How many people have only heard of "Open for Business"?
hard to say ;)
When did the ofbiz.org and OFBiz name start to get used?
Around 2005 I'd say, you might refer to our history page (still not
created/completed ;)
Perhaps this might be a good headline for a page on the mission statement,
vision and history.

I do not see any reason why this phrase can not be used in conjunction with the
trademark.
Many companies associate a slogan with their trademark.
IBM has used "Think" as a slogan. This did not stop Apple from using "Think different" in its marketing campaign. Apple can not use the IBM graphic
trademark.
SAP could easily use "Open for On-Line Business" even if we use "Open for
Business".
They might have more trouble putting the Apache OFBiz trademark on a comparison page on their web site if we felt that the comparison was
detrimental to the Apache OFBiz brand. We could not stop them from using just the text "OFBiz" in their marketing to refer to the product.
Anyway better to refer to http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/

I agree but I think we should explain on main page that OFBiz stands for "Open for
Business"
