Hi Rubén Many thanks for asking about this... potential difficulties are best avoided by discussion first :-)
I have cc'd the Sugar Labs e-mail alias for trademark questions ([email protected]). Sugar Labs is indeed a registered trademark, although we are still drafting our trademark policy (see http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Labs/Governance/Trademark and its discussion page). The SFLC, which handles legal questions for Sugar Labs, can give the best response concerning our trademark usage. >From a marketing standpoint, I don't see any difficulty at all using our logo for a choice on a DVD boot screen or on a DVD label where Sugar is present. Christian - we had discussed an updated logo with the R mark in mid-August, have you had a chance to work on that? It would be great if we could update our logo pages and send one to Rubén. thanks Sean 2009/10/15 Rubén Rodríguez Pérez <[email protected]>: > Hi, I have a question regarding to the SugarLabs logo usage. > > Here at the Trisquel project we get regularly published in magazines > -mostly Spanish ones by now-, and now that we have a Sugar based system, > it will also get published sometimes.
