Thanks for the additional pair of eyes on this diligence ... you found most of the things that I also found in my vetting of the name.

One additional thing I found was a French guy that owns the "freenix.org" domain, but I was able to determine that he only uses it for one personal/private email address, and even that isn't his primary email address. I've contacted him once, and he just kinda vaguely brushed off my plea to acquire the domain. I'm hoping that with the extra "street-cred" of our actual distribution naming/branding, I may be able to convince him.

The "freenix.com" domain is parked with a domain squatter ... I've actually submitted an offer to buy it, but no response yet. Obviously, I won't be willing to pay much for it, but I wanted to see how committed the squatter is, with the intent of waiting him out, and alot of badgering Smile

All in all, I'm convinced that the viable presence around any "freenix" naming/branding has been basically non-existent, and so with just a bit of time and continued activity/progress around our product, we'll become entrenched in the "freenix" real-estate.

Please feel free to bring up any other insights, or further items of concern, if you run across any.
