Description

MAUI is trade mark since 2015. It is illegal and vileness to steal your competitor's project name.

Expected Behavior

You are watchful and not trying to steal your competitor's project name.

Actual Behavior

You are trying to steal your competitor's project name.

Maybe you should notify Apple that iPhone is infringing on copyrights of the iFone company in Mexico while you're at it.

These two projects are not even in the same ecosystem. Stop trying to generate annoying messages repeating the same thing as #34 for a project that you won't even participate in.

It is unfortunate that the issues get closed even though there is a factual issue ("heated discussion" notwithstanding).

The screenshot above shows that Microsoft is using the trademarked MAUI name in global marketing, even though

the official legal name is .NET Multi-platform App UI and MAUI is an acronym, code name.

And it is unfortunate that the KDE community has shown such aggressiveness towards the .NET community and opens issue after issue on the same topic relentlessly like a bunch of Internet trolls despite an official response on #34.

In most open source projects, tickets get closed/locked when the issue is resolved.

In most open source projects, tickets can also get closed/locked when the issue is a duplicate of another issue.

They realized that and reopened #34 the first issue regarding this so no need for more issues on it
