Some clarification concerning the trademarks for 'coreboot®':
coresystems GmbH owns trademarks for 'coreboot®' in Germany, the US and Taiwan, not for Japan. Coresystems never had business contacts relating to coreboot® with Japanese people/companies so we had no problems so far. It does not matter if people really confuse a thin client and a firmware project. A potential violation would solely depend on the _classes_ and countries a trademark is registered in.
