> Dear Legal Team,
> We're working with board and Hadoop community to spin-off Submarine project to Apache TLP.
> We got question from board that if it is a concern with existing companies with similar name like "Yellow Submarine": [https://www-356.ibm.com/partnerworld/gsd/solutiondetails.do?solution=56451&lc=en&stateCd=P&tab=2]
> I hope to get some insights about how the name check process looks like to spin-off an Apache project since we have some projects with pretty general name like "Spark". If we don't have official process here, do you see any concerns about the project name "Submarine"?
> Thanks,
