Subject: ANN: Obelix ./. Mobilix: First Hearing of the Appelate Proceedings Scheduled
Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2002 14:24:40 -0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021031152440.GD13640@mobilix.org> (raw)
Surprisingly fast the high court in Munich (Germany) has
scheduled the first hearing of the appelate proceedings.
The proceedings will take place at November 21st. In the first
instance Werner Heuser has successfully defended
his Open Source project MobiliX - UniX on Mobile Devices
(http://mobilix.org) against Les Edition Albert Réné,
which is the owner of the trademark Obelix. But on
September 26th the plaintiff has sent an appelation to the
court. The laywers of Werner Heuser
Jaschinski Biere Brexl - JBB (http://jbb.de) have finished their
defense plea against the appelation today.
The argumentation of Jaschinski Biere Brexl - JBB
(http://jbb.de) couldn't resist to argue in an almost
ironical style. Very important for the Open Source community
is their rejection of all arguments, which try to claim the
suffix "iX" as sort of a trademark for Les Edition Albert Réné.
Especially in the IT field the suffix "iX" is a very wellknown
abbrevation for products, which are derived from or made for the
operating system UniX. Nevertheless the plaintiff has already
successfully urged two German IT companies (Skrobelix and Masterix)
to withdraw their names. But Werner Heuser is confident to put an
end to this threat. Though the plaintiff has announced to go
to the highest German court, if he doesn't succeed in this instance.
The documentation of the case (and the defense plea
in German) is available online
(http://mobilix.org/mobilix_asterix.html).
