trademark issues / possible user confusion /old releases

[Justin Mclean <ju...@classsoftware.com>]

Hi,

I come across this [1] which seems a bit confusing, it says "MARVIN (deprecated)” but states it's an ASF project. What might a user think if they come across this? There's also some minor branding and trademark issues that probably need to dealt with. Ask your mentors to help with this.

Looking at [2] I can see what looks like some pre-Adobe releases list here. It would probably be a good idea to clearly mark these as non-Apache releases to reduce any potential user confusion. Again your mentors can provide advice here.

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the recommendations. I agree totally with everything.
As the old repository is still managed by me I just updated the
informations to be a little more clear about the actual project status.
Please check if is better now and let me know if is not.

About the pypi account, I am still preparing the content.

Also, I've noticed that the some copyright statements still have B2W as
license holder. @Lucas Bonatto Miguel <lu...@gmail.com> Do B2W
already signed the code donation?

Thanks,
Taka

Now, about PyPI, there is nothing that mentions that those are apache
release, so maybe they could release the apache version under
apache-marvin-python-toolbox or something similar?
