Here is the text, which I consider a resubmission of the issue, depending on how it was previously dealt with:

"""
to remind everybody. 

Java (including the applets) is open source. 
With java I mean the specification, not a particular implementation that may or may not be proprietary.

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.
"""

However, we are using <applet> as [HTML4] does and I think we can hide behind W3C if there is a trademark issue (unlikely)  -- dh:2010-10-15

De-applied this issue and adjusted the components and the description.
