This is one of the more reasonable trademark defenses by one of the "big guys" that I've seen - one they are required to defend in order to keep. So, though it hurts, you pick a new name and move on. Very possibly the lawyers told the CEO to not respond to those emails until a decision was made. As an aside, the post starts by saying "it's not something to get worked up about" -- and then proceeds to do nearly exactly that, detailing even his email "exchange" with the CEO. |

I think he pretty clearly states that it's not the technicality, or legitimacy, of the trademark dispute that is bothering him, it's the fact that his friend of 12 years did not treat him like the friend he thought he was by speaking to him like a normal human being. Instead, the "friend" hid behind his lawyers to do the deed.
