> Key: MRQL-11
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRQL-11
> Project: MRQL
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Leonidas Fegaras
> Assignee: Leonidas Fegaras

> The US and EU trademark searches, and the Google search, suggest that the project name MRQL does not conflict with a previously registered trademark. More specifically,
> 1) I checked USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office) at
> http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/index.jsp
> using the Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS) for a registered trademark. The term I used was MRQL, meaning that "MRQL" could appear by itself, or as a prefix or suffix to another trademark (by searching "*MRQL*"). The search was performed for live and dead terms, for for all fields: owner name and address, serial number, and combined word mark. No matches were found. The lack of matches means that the USPTO has no records of MRQL as a trademark.
> 2) I searched the EU Office for Harmonization of the Internal Market (OHIM), at the Community Trademark Online database (CTM-ONLINE)
> http://oami.europa.eu/ows/rw/pages/QPLUS/databases/searchCTM.en.do
> and found 0 trade marks.
> 3) I did a web search on google for "MRQL". From the 100 first hits, all those links that do not refer to the MRQL project (pre-Apache or the incubating), do not refer to any other project or product.
> Is there any other place I should check?
