Use of Joomla in Extension Names[edit]

The usage of 'Joomla' in extension names or domains listed at JED requires a license by OSM.
Extension names must be titled 'for Joomla'. ie: 'MyExtension for Joomla' is permitted. 'Joomla MyExtension' is not permitted.
Use of the Joomla version is not permitted. ie: 'MyExtension for Joomla 3.0'

Joomla! Licensed[edit]

To be licensed you need to fill one of the following forms to OSM:

Domain Name Request: http://opensourcematters.org/domain-name-use-request.html
Extension name request: http://opensourcematters.org/extension-name-request.html

Use of other Trademarked Names[edit]

The usage of a trademarked name to which you do not hold the trademark to must be proceeded with 'for'. ie: 'MyExtension for Twitter'
