OmegaT+ is not OmegaT. In general, OmegaT+ is a platform of machine aided human translation tools, unlike OmegaT. Specifically, one application, OmegaT+, is the translation processor tool part of this platform itself. This application was originally a fork of OmegaT. The intention of creating a fork is to make an improved version of that applications basic funactionality and add features that the OmegaT project does not. Since OmegaT has been released under GPL as free software it is completely legitimate for anyone to fork the application, in accord with applicable licences.

Trademarks
Trademarks on free software are anathema to the cause of free software and constitute a threat to the future of free software that slows the adoption and innovation that could result otherwise. Free software can form ecosystems that evolve. Retaining the same or similar names for related software encourages that evolution more than forcing forked applications to change names. This is exactly the view that free software is built on. It is only proprietary interests that have forced trademarks into the free software world. And this is a future problem that the free software world is going to have to deal with, just as it is now having to look more closely at patent issues than it did in the past.
Logo images and others produced for OmegaT+ can be considered trademarks of myself and this project if used in conjunction with products that are of lesser quality for the same or future versions of the software (no passing-off). Otherwise, they can be used in the same sense that copyrighted GPL software can (unmodified and positively modified distribution).
