yo - good news. Thanks for the effort.

I really don't mind - but I'm sure it's not a random addition:
 what's the background for that 'TM' ??

The same as any other trademark: I use it. Plus I spent the few hundred 
bucks to register the thing, and if no one objects too strenuously to 
the trademark office, it may eventually turn into ®.

The primary purpose, as with most trademarks, is simply to protect the 
brand. If someone wants to fork the code, they're free to do so under 
the terms of the LGPL, but they have to call their product something 
other than "XOM".

Plus having a registered trademark might be useful if anyone ever 
decides to come after my domain name.
