Description: The Primer uses a fictitious corporation name, Contoso Ltd., throughout the Primer in its running example. It isn't clear that use of such a fictitious name, without w3c copyright/trademark ownership, is advisable. Should a company be incorporated with that name, then the Policy 1.5 primer would be in essence providing it with free advertising... Worse, the company might sue the W3C for copyright/trademark infringement. Justification: see description Proposed Resolution: Change all occurances of "Contoso" and/or "Contoso Ltd." to "Example.com" and change all "real.contoso.com" domain references to "example.com". 14407 1 chrisfer 2007-03-13 21:49:03 +0000 [17:46] cferris: RESOLUTION: 4103 closed with proposal in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2007Feb/0033.html [17:46] cferris: rrsagent, where am i?
