[Fedora-legal-list] fwsnort vs. snort TM

[Peter Vrabec]

Dear Fedora Legal,

I'd like to push fwsnort into Fedora, but I'm afraid there might be problem 
with snort TM.

http://www.snort.org/legal/snort-licensing/snort-trademark-guidelines

I have contacted fwsnort upstream and I was told they didn't have any approval 
from Sourcefire Marketing. But there are more projects that use term snort on 
freshmeat.net. Snort is released under GPL. fwsnort doesn't use any VRT 
licensed Snort rules and fwsnort had probably existed before snort TM.

Could you please help me to clean up this issue. thnx.

Peter.
