Groupon: Updated the *Template*
You must not edit the .html, but the template. Then run make and the
base directory of the repository. This wouldn't have happened if we
still had server side builds. Sorry for the confusion. The automatic
commit of the amonut of the money raised was barfing over a rebase
conflict, hence there were no update for the last few hours.

+ <p>Update: Thank you for all the support that you have given us.
+ Groupon has <a
href="http://www.gnome.org/news/2014/11/groupon-has-agreed-to-change-its-product-name/">confirmed</a> with
the GNOME Foundation that they are going to abandon all of their 28 pending trademark applications and will
proceed with a name change for their product. We could not have done this without your help!</p>

<p>"GNOME" has been a familiar name in software for the past 17 years, and a <a
href="http://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=76368848&caseType=SERIAL_NO&searchType=statusSearch">registered
trademark</a> since 2006. The <a href="https://www.gnome.org/">GNOME project</a> has been a staple desktop
for GNU/Linux and BSD desktops. It was the default desktop for Sun Microsystems workstation class machines,
continues to be the default desktop for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
distributions, and it is the default desktop of Fedora and Debian. SUSE Linux Enterprise Point of Service
solution for the retail industry is based on GNOME. GNOME technology can be found in TVs, tablets, phones,
consumer devices, and in common software everywhere.</p>
<p>Recently Groupon announced a product with the same product name as GNOME. Groupon’s product is
a <a href="http://investor.groupon.com/releasedetail.cfm?releaseid=848707">tablet based point of sale</a>
“operating system for merchants to run their entire operation." The GNOME community was shocked that Groupon
would use our mark for a product so closely related to the GNOME desktop and technology. It was almost
inconceivable to us that Groupon, with over $$2.5 billion in annual revenue, a full legal team and a huge
engineering staff would not have heard of the GNOME project, found our trademark registration using a casual
search, or even found our website, but we nevertheless got in touch with them and asked them to pick another
name. Not only did Groupon refuse, but it has now filed even more trademark applications (the full list of
applications they filed can be found <a

and <a
href="http://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=86441913%0A86441922%0A86441923%0A86441925%0A86441926%0A86441930%0A86441933%0A86441934%0A86441937%0A86441941%0A86441945%0A86441951%0A&caseType=SERIAL_NO&searchType=multiStatus">here</a>).
To use the GNOME name for a proprietary software product that is antithetical to the fundamental ideas of
the GNOME community, the free software community and the GNU project is outrageous. Please help us fight this
huge company as they try to trade on our goodwill and hard earned reputation.</p>
