Thanks.

No legal issues. We (at NetDEF) stated that we would be willing to hand 
the name over to
the fork if this is the outcome. From my personal view, I think it might 
be confusing as
in the past many people know us as a organization to support Quagga and 
now it suddenly
would become the name of the fork…
But more important, the results of the survey didn’t put it anywhere 
into the top 5
choices.
