I worked for a microphone company that wasn't fine with the same name
for a product, that was for medical use without any microphone.

In my home town there was a car tyre dealer using the same name as a
radio station.

In Germany they don't need to be on similar things.

Bob's and your projects are similar, so you project is similar to the
proprietary project too, if Bob's project should be similar to this project.

Definitive my last words to this issue :S.
