J'ai donc en effet dans la base de palmopensource une fiche,
http://www.palmopensource.com/index.php3?more=126 , sur ce logiciel sous GPL
qu'est Mayadate.

Que puis-je répondre à ce Leigh ?
1- Que ca n'est pas mon problème, je ne suis pas l'auteur du programme
2- Son TM est invalide car il a été déposé en Fevrier 2002
(http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=2blnlb.3.1), et Mayadate pour
Palm date de Mai 2001.
3- Donc je ne supprimerai pas ce lien de mon site (comme je suis en france,
suis-je immunisé aux problemes de TM déposés aux US ?)

Vos avis ?

  Ludovic
