The problem is that the Tor developers really don't know - they primarily write software rather than practice law :). Andrew and the Tor Board of Directors typically need to discuss these issues with actual lawyers. One of the sticky issues with trademark protection though is that if you do not defend your mark in all applicable cases, you lose the right to defend it in cases you actually do care about. So please do not take any decisions about your use personally. -- Mike Perry Mad Computer Scientist fscked.org evil labs
