Let me set the record straight and end the speculation.
Despite the lack of exposure here, we have been using the name “bbSpell” since February 2004. somedevelopers utilizes trademark with “bbSpell”, and has a pending trademark application for “bbSpell”. From our website you can see we have also invested in the brand.
Due to the obvious confusion between “bbSpell” and “bbSpellCheck”, somedevelopers politely asked Chris (deadstick) to change the name of his product, noting the above points.
Chris declined.
We then asked Chris to reconsider, highlighting the above points again, and informing Chris that if he refused to change the name of “BBSpellCheck”, he would force us to take legal action.
We did not hear back. Chris pulled his products.
Those are the facts, period.
