GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 87757
CDDB capplet: Remove the text CDDB as it possbibly violates a TM of CDDB, Inc
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
The term "CDDB" potentially violates a trademark and should be removed from the UI. This problem should be of URGENT priority. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. From the Menu Panel, choose Applications > Desktop Preferences > Advanced > CDDB. Actual Results: * The menu item is called CDDB. * The window title is CDDBSlave2 Properties Expected Results: * The menu item should be called "CD Database" * The window title should be called "CD Database Preferences" How often does this happen? Every time. Additional Information: At http://www.cddb.com/corporate/terms.html, CDDB Inc. claim that the term "CDDB" is their trademark. If the term CDDB is being used generically in the GNOME UI and not specifically to refer to services provided by CDDB Inc, then there are potential legal problems for GNOME.

Glynn asked me to rewrite the Desktop Preferences tooltips last week. The tooltip for CD Database should be as follows: Modify your CD database preferences
