--0000000000005cffa505ac3776b0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi @Michael Thanks for your advice. As far as I know, Solace doesn't have a product called Eventmesh, They're just using that name to promote their PubSub platform. But in order not to cause trouble in the future, I also ask guys of Apache Brand to help check whether this name is appropriate. For us, we've been using the name EventMesh for a long time, and we want to keep it so that users can get better product positioning from the name. And base on this document[1], we searched in the U.S. Patent Office[2] and found nothing inappropriate.
