"Description
Could not find any open issue on this topic. Others are closed, but still not solved. That is why I open a new issue.
MAUI is a registered trademark in European Union. It is registered by Blue Systems which also employes KDE developers.
Here is a link about trademark status: https://euipo.europa.eu/eSearch/#details/trademarks/013410601
These news struck me like a lightning in early morning when I was drinking my coffee. This happening again? It was similar issue that Microsoft made in the past, I think it was GVfs (GNOME Virtual file system), and now this MAUI, which for the past idk maybe 6-8 years was a KDE project for front-end UI framework based on QQC2 and Kirigami. It is really nice project, free and open-source. How can someone just come and take the name of the project for some another project? Maybe my next project should be called .NET or Microsoft? I don't get it...
Solution to the problem would be simple: rename your project, as it is already registered trademark and these actions are illegal.
Oh, and one more thing. Stealing is bad. Microsoft should be ashamed of themselves."

Stop playing dirty and rename it. Stealing is not nice, against the law, and against common sense.
