Shane Curcuru commented on PODLINGNAMESEARCH-11: ------------------------------------------------ Searching for "wink software" is more appropriate than "wink open source". From the trademark point of view, what informed consumers are looking for is a software product that does something useful for them. The fact that it's software, and does REST server/client stuff is most relevant; the open source aspect is much more secondary. The only thing that potentially concerns me is Winktoolkit, since that talks about being a web client as well. However since they are in JavaScript and are quite specific for mobile platforms, and Apache Wink Client is Java-ish and is really just the other half of the Server bit, I think that's OK, although I'd like to ask for other comments to see if anyone else has a question. The Wink presentation software is a clearly different kind of application. End users looking to - perhaps - record screenshots of their web server's behavior would not be likely to ever confuse that Wink with Apache Wink - which will mostly be used by developers writing those servers. > Establish whether "Apache WInk" is a suitable name > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PODLINGNAMESEARCH-11 > URL: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PODLINGNAMESEARCH-11 > Project: Podling Suitable Names Search > Issue Type: Suitable Name Search > Reporter: Luciano Resende > > We have to do some investigations to ensure that "Apache Wink" is a suitable > name for a TLP. > Here are some resources related to this issue: > http://incubator.apache.org/guides/names.html > http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/ -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
