Hi,

My name is Daniel Schwill and I'm the developer of a spreadsheet application called Tables for Mac OS X. I'm using the brand/trade name Tables for my spreadsheet application since 2004/2005. I just recognized that you released a spreadsheet application called Tables as part of the Calligra project.

Before choosing a name for an application it could be a good idea to use google and search that name. When you search for "Tables" or "Tables spreadsheet" for example you'll find many links to my spreadsheet application on the first page of the search results.

Choosing a name for a new spreadsheet application that is already in use by an existing spreadsheet application will irritate customers and cause confusion. As my spreadsheet application Tables and the Calligra project are both available on Mac OS X I ask you to rename your spreadsheet application to avoid confusion of names between my spreadsheet application and the spreadsheet application of the Calligra project.

Regards,

   Daniel
