While I don't necessarily like the tone of the e-mail message, I think
it would be interesting to hear an independent legal opinion of the
issues.  Perhaps, a little about the legal background, (e.g., trademark
law), a summary of what issues are fairly clear from a legal perspective,
a descriptions of the areas where the legal answers are not yet
clear, and the level of risk to various parties.

On the other hand, I don't know that NANOG is the right forum for this.

Any suggestions for a better forum?
