This is a continued effort of a derivative group titled “The New osCommerce Project” (now “The osCommerce Project”) to try and take over and own the success of osCommerce which we all have, as a community, worked hard on in the past 9 years since the start of osCommerce in March 2000.
This is being addressed legally and are confident that we will prevail in defending and protecting our rights.
If you have been addressed by eCommerce Ventures Ltd concerning their registration of the “osCommerce” Trademark, please contact legal@oscommerce.com and forward the relevant communication means you were contacted with.
