<PRE>Im a lawyer, altough i dont know US or EU laws; i think it will be a
legal problem like Mandrake name case. We should immediately need to
consider this. Also even name is not a legal matter than domain names
could be give us headache.

</I>><i> I don't think we should worry about this right now. It has gone too far and
</I>><i> once we have the infrastructure up and going, changing names becomes a
</I>><i> trivial matter.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> It would surprise met if this were of any problems at all. A minerals
</I>><i> company found at mageia.com and a linux distro found at mageia.org are
</I>><i> simply too far apart in concept to be mistaken.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> It will become a problem if the term "Mageia" has been copywritten or
</I>><i> (heaven forbid) patented! by someone or a company.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Having a site's name is not usually a problem. Laws differ depending of the
</I>><i> country you reside in. But they all seem to follow the same convention
</I>><i> (except for patent laws).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Note that I am not a lawyer.
