Please note that gnome-mastermind is not going to enter gnome-games (or
any other gnome package) at the moment but just gnome svn repository
take advantage of gnome facilities for developers (easier work for
translators for example).
By the way it's not the first time that a discussion about mastermind
trademark comes out. I've leaved this name because I didn't find a
better one and because it was the best choice to gain a bit of
popularity at first. I'm ready to change it if the trademark holder will
ask me to do it (as Dave said) or if it is an issue for you. If you have
good suggestions they are welcome ;)

Thanks for your interest,
