Re: Postgres/PostgreSQL as a trademark?

There's a searchable database at the US Patent and Trademark Office.

The only active trademarks it shows with either Postgres or PostgreSQL are
variations of "Postgres Plus" held by EnterpriseDB.

There's a dead patent on Mammouth that references PostgreSQL that was held
by Command Prompt, Inc.

Try this form to search for yourself:
