Exactly. For trademark protection reasons, there's a distinctive set of
names and artwork that we use for the official products built and released
here at AbiSource:
http://www.abisource.com/personal.phtml
http://www.abisource.com/tm_guide.phtml
The sources that we release (via CVS, tarballs, etc.) have always included
non-infringing artwork and names for the convenience of anyone who wants to
build their own personal variant of AbiWord (aka AbiWord Personal).
In this case, "anyone" == the good folks at Mandrake. :-)
