And in related news, the estate of lyricist Johnny Mercer has
announced a trademark lawsuit about Mandriva,  according to lawyers
representing the estate, the misspelling of moon and river and the
missing space are not legal defenses against the blatant attempt to
take on the trade dress of the famous song from Breakfast at Tiffany.
Tiffany & Co has joined the lawsuit as a co-plaintiff.

Andy Williams could not be reached for comment.
