Is that a problem? Must I rebrand? Those sound like trademark questions, CCing trademark folks: http://www.debian.org/trademark I'm not an expert on trademarks but I would guess that "based on foo" type statements are not forbidden by the law. Not sure about the branding question. > Anything else to keep in mind when redistributing anything modified > stuff based on Debian?

We also have some guidelines for derivatives and other iniatives. http://wiki.debian.org/DerivativesFrontDesk http://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Guidelines -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
