Neither in the repository nor on the Draco website could I find information regarding:

  • Whether Draco is a registered trademark
  • Legal requirements for using Draco text or image marks (logo)

Note: The license used for Draco (Apache 2.0) does not grant use of trademarks

Can this be clarified and is there a person to contact?

Thanks

Hi @atteneder,

So I contacted someone who knows more. Draco name and logo are trademarks owned by Google and here are the rules for proper usage.

If you still have more questions please let me know.
Thanks,
Frank

Just circling back to this to re-confirm. Is "Draco", as used here, trademarked?

I was unable to find it via a quick search on https://tmsearch.uspto.gov/search/search-results and it doesn't appear to be in the list on https://about.google/brand-resource-center/trademark-list/.

Specifically, I would like to know if someone was to port Draco and, for example, name the ported repository "Draco.NET", would that be allowed? Thanks.
