It is important to be consistent in the application of the rules. Some of us made a stink about the "Commons Clause" people abusing the ASF's trademark when they were promoting "Apache License 2.0 with Commons Clause" for something incompatible with the Apache License. It would be hypocritical to apply trademark rules for that but not in the case of "MangoDB".

Fundamentally I do agree with you. (especially with the mention of "Apache License 2.0 with Commons Clause", which was giving me a headache this morning)

But also I'm not lifting a finger to help companies like MongoDB, unless properly compensated.

Personally I hope that MongoDB does go for a trademark lawsuit, triggering the Streisand Effect. Then Mango can find a better name and attract attention.
