Hi Lorn,

That is not very accurate.  There is nothing new going on. Opie has always 
been a trademark of handhelds.org, please see:

    http://www.handhelds.org/legal

It is now a "registered" trademark, as part of some legal house cleaning.  A 
formal trademark usage policy for trademarks should be posted on 
http://www.handhelds.org, near the 1st of the month after the legal folks 
have finished their review.  I expect it to be very similar to the ubuntu 
policy. 

..and no it is not "all" the projects, as you are implying...

I would however appreciate that you disclose any conflict of interest when 
posting such messages.  I believe you attempted to started an "opieII" 
project at another site?

Sincerely, 



--George France
CEO, Handhelds.org, Inc.
One of the founders of handhelds.org, 1999.
