- jyriand 6y agoI would say it’s pretty good marketing for Roam research. I only learned about roam research because of org-roam and I’m paying customer now.
- Halian 6y agoI'm not familiar?

- mkl 6y agoAnd from the GitHub repo [1]: "Org-roam is a Roam replica" [1] https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam
- mthoms 6y agoThere's nothing wrong with saying something like that. Trademark is more concerned with brand names, logos and slogans. The purpose of which is prevent consumer confusion about the source of a product.
- seds 6y agoWhy is this a trademark infringement?! Because of the name?
- mimischi 6y agoThere has been some discussion on org-roams Discourse about this [1]. [1] https://org-roam.discourse.group/t/project-name-change/154 https://org-roam.discourse.group/t/project-name-change/154
- kinghajj 6y agoDo trademarks protections apply against noncommercial works, too?
- jdminhbg 6y agoYes. You can’t produce a non-profit Coca-Cola.
- tomjen3 6y agoDunno, it seems pretty clear that it is not Roam Research, but a clone for org mode, but the lawsuit might still be pretty expensive to win.
