   sourceforge.net hosts several project tools we take advantage from like the

+  1.7 What about CURL from curl.com?
+
+  During the summer 2001, curl.com has been busy advertising their client-side
+  programming language for the web, named CURL.
+
+  We are in no way associated with curl.com or their version of CURL. We have
+  never heard anything from them, nor are we scared of any trademark or naming
+  lawsuits.
+
+  Our project name curl has been in effective use since 1998. We weren't the
+  first computer related project to name itself curl either, so we don't claim
+  any first-hand rights to the name either.
+
+  We realize that we'll have to live in parallell with this behemoth, there's
+  nothing we can do about it.
