We don't have any rights of the name "Lua", though we do have Lua, the
software, registered in our INPI (National Institute for Industrial
Property). But I don't think we or PUC want or have resources to sue MS.
Who does?

Also, like I said before, LUA existed as an acronym long before Lua was born.
It meant Logical Unit Application, whatever that is. See
