Request access to node-forward/node here

chetandhembre commented 9 years ago

Last time I checked this organization has joyent/node forked repo. But now I can not see it. Am I missing something here ? :)

Fishrock123 commented 9 years ago

It's currently private, we are probably waiting for things to get going a bit more and an actual announcement, I'd assume. cc @mikeal

Qard commented 9 years ago

I suspect it's just to prevent people from creating lots of issues and pull requests before build infrastructure is in place. It'd probably be best for contributions to continue to target joyent/node for now.

bnoordhuis commented 9 years ago

It's been taken private for now pending resolution of a trademark issue with Joyent. I missed the call where the decision was made but I believe it was done as a goodwill gesture towards Joyent; apparently, they were genuinely baffled by the fork. Discussions are ongoing, please watch this space.

heapwolf commented 9 years ago

Does that mean they are "baffled" by the other 7,243 forks? The word "node" is not the trademark they own. The license states exactly what they can actually enforce.

Fishrock123 commented 9 years ago

apparently, they were genuinely baffled by the fork.

.. they would be

indexzero commented 9 years ago

@hij1nx not espousing an opinion either way, but since 2012 Joyent has asserted in the LICENSE for joyent/node, that "node" is a trademark of Joyent. They have not, however, ever filed for this trademark with the USPTO office, but they have filed (and received) a mark for "node.js".

It is also interesting that the trademark policy you linked to does not explicitly talk about "node", but makes sense given they never filed for the mark.

that "node" is a trademark of Joyent. They have not, however, ever filed for this trademark with the USPTO office

Actually, they did file it but abandoned it http://trademarks.justia.com/852/62/node-85262599.html. "node" is a pre-existing general programming term so it's very doubtful it ever would have been approved.

JulianGindi commented 9 years ago

Not sure if this is the best place to post this, but count me in if you need help moving forwards. I have a pretty good grasp on Node and love what this project is trying to accomplish.

isaacs commented 9 years ago

@mikeal Note, the USPTO's actual website search is terrible, and links are session-based. Please use http://trademarks.justia.com which is in every way superior and has the same information.

vkurchatkin commented 9 years ago

So, what is going on? How can one see what is going on in node-forward/node?

ilkkao commented 9 years ago

Node advisory board was just formed. I think it includes some active node-forward people. Probably we still need to wait some time to hear how things progress.

bnoordhuis commented 9 years ago

It's taking some more time. If you want access to the repo, ping me.

vkurchatkin commented 9 years ago

@bnoordhuis thank you, I would really love that

That's correct, it's still private. I'll give read access to anyone who asks, though.

zladuric commented 9 years ago

Well then: can I please have read access?

:-)

Thanks,
