It would be good to follow Georg Horn's suggestion about having a written
agreement between the two parties as to the use of the name.

That is a good idea. You could have a link at the top of the main webpage
saying "If you are looking for information about the CURL programming
language, please visit www.curl.com" and they would have something similar
for cURL.

As for the Q 1.7 in the FAQ, I suggest that you tone it down. :)

We are not associated with the client-side programming language for the
web, named CURL. For more information about the CURL programing language
please visit http://www.curl.com
