To follow up, 1. I performed a search with the US trademark office and performed a Google search for Woden. There were no real problem results. I've summarized my findings in the Woden status file [1].
2. I sent an e-mail to the secretary and am awaiting a response. 5. I've been through the Woden code and dependencies. The code is licensed under Apache V2.0 or W3C. I've listed the binary library licenses in the Woden status file [1]. There is one outstanding library, StAX, for which I need to confirm that the license is Apache V2.0.

Regarding 5, Please review - External jars depdendencies, make sure NOTICE and LICENSE files are up-to-date. and all the licenses are compatible - I don't think WSDL4J is trademarked and probably not relevent since we are changing not going to use that name here. - Please go thru the code and see if there are any headers with copyright notices etc other than Apache's. that's it.
