Mikael, Jean-Yves,

   GPLv3, section 7 "Additonal terms", paragraph 3
*"e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade
names, trademarks, or service marks; or"
*
No problem. Jean-Yves may well have a valid trademark, I can live with it.

But paragraph 5, penultimate paragraph of setion 7):
*"If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
must place,
in the relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms that apply
to those files, or a notice indicating where to find the applicable terms."
*
As mentioned, I have *not* found such statements or notices in the sources I
have downloaded. I cannot find it either when using the help file, or in the
MN "About" dialog (firefox's 3.0.3 about box does, as previous versions
probably also have). The only place I have found it, is at the bottom of a
web page that may not be readily available to all recipients of the source
code.

How can then anyone know that there could be a potential trademark problem,
and that MN can no longer be freely to modified and redistributed under
GPLv3 ?

All I am asking for is that future releases contain the required information
as the license states they should.
