Subject: Re: [office-comment] Java trademark (ODF pt 1, public review 1)
Dear all,
The spec makes mention of "Java" as a registered trademark, when referring to Java applets. Java applets are nowhere defined in the text and no normative reference is provided.
Sun says Java has a (TM) not an (R) http://www.sun.com/suntrademarks/index.jsp#J
The ISO/IEC directives state:
"Proprietary trade names (i.e. trade marks) for a particular product should as far as possible be avoided, even if they are in common use." (6.6.3)
These provisions should be generalised to allow non-proprietary technology to be used.
- Alex.
