Let's continue this discussion on the tm list, as Peter suggested.

I posted a message there
http://www.jabber.org/pipermail/tm/2002-April/000001.html

BTW, I am familar with the US trademark laws and "Jabber is a trademark of
the Jabber foundation" would satisfy the US legal requirements.

Regards,
Ashvil
