Hi,
today there was a hearing at the Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, Berlin (municipal court) about the preliminary injunction against the German Verein. The injunction was prohibiting Wikimedia Deutschland e.V. to redirect wikipedia.de to the German Wikipedia as long as the full civil name of a dead hacker ([[en:Tron (hacker)]]) is shown at de.wikipedia.org.
In the hearing, the judge gave more than just a hint that he does not agree with the argument from Tron's parents that telling a (already publicly known) civil name is violating the post-mortem Persönlichkeitsrecht (right of personality).
The decision, whether the preliminary injunction is withdrawn will be announced on thursday at 9 a.m. (CET).
Here are two reports from the court hearing:
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/69056 (the author was present at the hearing)
http://www.golem.de/0601/43060.html (I am not sure if he was there)
There is one question left and I would love to see some research from you. Ivo Floricic, the owner of the trademark "Tron" and father of Boris Floricic (aka. [[en:Tron (hacker)]] claims that he thinks that he is the only one with the name "Floricic" in Germany and these special circumstances would somehow violate his rights if wikipedia is mentioning the full name of Tron.
Does anyone know any other person by the name of Floricic?
According to Google, there is an artist "Alen Floricic" from Croatia who might be notable (if he is notable, it would be nice to consider taking the CV from certain sites and write an article about him). There is also a professor of linguistics, Franck Floricic from France.
