it's critical, I would say. They canceled the registration just today [1], but there are still copyrights for name parts like "S-Bahn Halleipzig". I would remove it from the voting list to prevent us from trouble. S-Bahn is not really a location in Berlin. If it does, S-Bahn is broken ;-)<br>

Hi Dmitry,<br>
<br>
According to Wikipedia [0] the trademark was removed. The citation [1]<br>
is actually inaccurate; it was not the final ruling. Regardless [2]<br>
seems to reflect the final result which is that the trademark is<br>
cancelled.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I suspect that S-Bahn may be a protected (copyright, trademark,<br>
whatever) name. Did you have a chance to check it?<br>

Greetings all,<br>
<br>
It is time again to cast your vote for the naming of the S<br>
Release. This time<br>
is little different as we've decided to use a public polling<br>
option over per<br>
user private URLs for voting. This means, everybody should proceed<br>
to use the<br>
following URL to cast their vote:<br>

Because this is a public poll, results will currently be only<br>
viewable by myself<br>
until the poll closes. Once closed, I'll post the URL making the<br>
results<br>
viewable to everybody. This was done to avoid everybody seeing the<br>
results while<br>
the public poll is running.<br>
<br>
The poll will officially end on 2018-03-21 23:59:59[1], and<br>
results will be<br>
posted shortly after.<br>

According to the Release Naming Process, this poll is to determine<br>
the<br>
community preferences for the name of the R release of OpenStack.<br>
It is<br>
possible that the top choice is not viable for legal reasons, so<br>
the second or<br>
later community preference could wind up being the name.<br>
<br>
Release Name Criteria<br>
<br>
Each release name must start with the letter of the ISO basic<br>
Latin alphabet<br>
following the initial letter of the previous release, starting<br>
with the<br>
initial release of "Austin". After "Z", the next name should start<br>
with<br>
"A" again.<br>
<br>
The name must be composed only of the 26 characters of the ISO<br>
basic Latin<br>
alphabet. Names which can be transliterated into this character<br>
set are also<br>
acceptable.<br>
<br>
The name must refer to the physical or human geography of the<br>
region<br>
encompassing the location of the OpenStack design summit for the<br>
corresponding release. The exact boundaries of the geographic<br>
region under<br>
consideration must be declared before the opening of nominations,<br>
as part of<br>
the initiation of the selection process.<br>
<br>
The name must be a single word with a maximum of 10 characters.<br>
Words that<br>
describe the feature should not be included, so "Foo City" or "Foo<br>
Peak"<br>
would both be eligible as "Foo".<br>
<br>
Names which do not meet these criteria but otherwise sound really<br>
cool<br>
should be added to a separate section of the wiki page and the TC<br>
may make<br>
an exception for one or more of them to be considered in the<br>
Condorcet poll.<br>
The naming official is responsible for presenting the list of<br>
exceptional<br>
names for consideration to the TC before the poll opens.<br>
<br>
Exact Geographic Region<br>
<br>
The Geographic Region from where names for the S release will come<br>
is Berlin<br>
<br>

Berlin states of<br>
