From: Kazunari Hirano on 29 Jan 2010 06:49 Hi Cor, Liz and all, We see "OpenOffice" on their pages such as "DOWNLOAD INFORMATION" on http://www.oracle.com/us/sun/index.html and "SOFTWARE STRATEGY WEBCASTS" on http://www.oracle.com/events/productstrategy/index.html Shall we ask Oracle to correct them, "OpenOffice" to "OpenOffice.org," which is the name of our product and the name of our community?

From: Katsuya Kobayashi on 29 Jan 2010 14:00 Hi Lars, Your both side of view is good point. Hi Cor, You write on the other sled, "the Dutch firm OpenOffice is trademark holder for the EU.". Is it only one holder, and who? Let's teach the FACT to Oracle staff soon!

But he uses "OpenOffice.org" recently in his blogs :) I am sure Oracle will correct "OpenOffice" -> "OpenOffice.org" http://www.oracle.com/lang/jp/sun/index.html I have found "OpenOffice" on this Japanese page too. http://www.oracle.com/lang/jp/corporate/contact.html So I send a message through http://www.oracle.co.jp/inq_pl/INQUIRY/quest?rid=6 and ask Oracle to correct them :) -- Kazunari Hirano - Marketing Project Coordinator - OpenOffice.org Japanese Language Project http://ja.openoffice.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscribe(a)openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-help(a)openoffice.org |
