Incidentally:
Actually, you have my pretty much complete agreement on that point.
Saying "look, it's my name, I run a business, please talk to me about
using it", fine, no problem.
Saying "it's mine, you want to steal it, I will hunt you down" - well,
that bespeaks some very poor things about the person making the
statement.

*IF* you put on an event of your own and choose
to call it the "Vintage
Computer Festival", *THEN* I will bury your event. Do what you like, but
find your own name.
This is why I wouldn't call it VCF or have anything to do with the US
VCFs in any case. The mere fact that someone has enough ego to go "It's
*MY* name and if you use it I'll *crush* you, muahahahaha" puts me off
any further involvement.
