> I wouldn't be asking if I could. How does "Software Freedom Conservancy" damage the "Software Freedom Law Center" trademark? Considering the latter founded the former, I think you should ask them. The timeline is the following - 17-September-2005 – US Trademark First Use Date: SOFTWARE FREEDOM CONSERVANCY (by the SFLC itself) - 3-April-2006 – SFLC Announces incorporation of Software Freedom Conservancy as an independent non-profit, with Eben Moglen, Karen Sandler, and Daniel Ravicher as Directors Anyway, their reasons are in the petition for the cancellation of "Software Freedom Conservancy" that can be found here http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=92066968&pty=CAN&eno=1 http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=92066968&pty=CAN&eno=... The trademark of "Software freedom" is never mentioned, but only "GROUNDS FOR CANCELLATION – LIKELIHOOD OF CONFUSION" (all uppercase as in the original document)
