g'day,

I have tried to send the following email about a possible abuse of
trademark to foundation-l 3 times but it keeps getting rejected. Could
you please forward it to the list (or other appropriate person) for
me.

Thankyou,
-rjs.

I don't pretend to understand trademark law, but in this month's issue
of cleo <http://cleo.ninemsn.com.au/cleo/> there is a section called
"cleo's guy wikipedia" or something to that effect. Basically it is a
bunch of articles along the line of "if a guy says this he really
means this". Anyways, it has nothing at all to do with wikipedia
except for the use of our name.

I'm not sure if this is the right list to bring this up but since
wikilegal was closed down i guess it must be.

Paz,
-rjs.
