I've seen some noise on that issue.
is this REALLY a thing?
We are all here together building this, right?
Does @ned really have an issue with this?
I would think not.... we need family, unity and commUNITY here for mass name recognition and adoption.
I cannot honestly imagine why this would really be an issue........... I have seen some of the stuff in cursory on this lately and just honestly SMH at it.
They are OK with us using the Steem name + logo, just not "Steemit". I'm pretty sure that it gets into a slippery slope - if they say 'yes' to one, then it opens the door for more. They want to reserve the rights to their company/brand.
Sigh.
I understand of course.
