No I meant I'll pass on asking them if gnome-mindmaster is different enough, as 
you don't like it and I have doubts about it being different enough my self.

I'm not saying I (or someone else from Fedora) won't package gnome-mastermind 
once the trademark issue is fixed. For more on that see my reply to your other 
mail.
