I think this pretty much explains why this happened, a quote from their parent company here: "2005 - IN AUGUST, WE ARE ACQUIRED BY DICE HOLDINGS, INC., WHICH IS OWNED EQUALLY BY GENERAL ATLANTIC LLC AND QUADRANGLE LLC, PRIVATE EQUITY FIRMS IN NEW YORK CITY." via: http://www.dhigroupinc.com/our-company/default.aspx
Earlier quoted context omitted.
By which you mean a trademark?
You both are putting a heck of a lot of effort into nitpicking a single character used for humorous effect :/
It would be a shame if a young entrepreneur thought their trademark was protected by the Berne convention and someone came and took it. It would be a shame if the Mickey Mouse lobby went completely unopposed because people can't think critically about what they don't know. It would be a shame if a large corporation could grab the trademark of a small free software charity because people don't think it's "a big deal".
