This is an issue for trademarks actually. For the reason Tony described I assume the podling should look for a more suitable name.

Advice appreciated.

Hi all,  as part of the due diligence for the TempoProposal we need to see if the 
name ’Tempo’ is viable. I did a search of the US Trademark Electronic Search System 
(TESS) and found 188 live uses of this name as well as a Google Search. The most 
interesting one that emerged and that is directly related to this technology space 
was a Chicago based start-up called TempoIQ see 
https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/tempo#/entity 
<https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/tempo#/entity>. It would be good to 
get the Apache Legal team perspective on this. I didn’t do an International search on 
the name yet but will do so if needed.

Thanks
