Subject: [PC-BSD Testing] 9-CURRENT 20110225 snapshot online<br>

In regard to the Software Browser, it has now been renamed the<br>
"AppCafe", and it should be functional for browsing /
installing some of<br>
the PBIs we've uploaded for testing, such as firefox,
thunderbird,<br>
openoffice, etc.<br>

<div>I agree that "AppCafe" is a good name. However by calling
"App-something" I am also very concerned about Apple - they tend
to claim anything starting with those key-words like "App" or
"i" except their own products are damaging their
brand/trademark/image or infringe their patent. One of the most
recent examples is the fight for trademark "AppStore" against
Microsoft (For instance, <a moz-do-not-send="true"

</div>
<div>I cannot help worrying - what if Apple files a complaint
against the PCBSD project? Will the PCBSD project be able to, or
have any resource to, defeat the giant in any patent lawsuit?</div>

PC-BSD doesn't make profits, I don't see how it could be considered
an industry competitor.<br>
