Can someone explain to me why anyone would want to sue the python foundation? I mean, maybe if the company was unrelated to programming... but a hosting company? Wouldn't they know?
[The CEO]confirmed that he'd not involved any technical staff in the decisions he'd made about the Python product brand, and told me he regretted that as it would probably have helped him understand the likely reaction to his trademark challenge.
They weren't suing the PSF. They were registering "Python" as a trademark and the PSF was trying to prevent that from happening.
Sounds like this company recognized the potential damage going against the PSF would have to their cloud service offering, even if they might technically have been in the right. Good for them!
