I think you either need to use the Fedora Remix mark or go through the process of creating a new secondary mark, because you're talking about distributing "things" that are marked in a way that implies that Fedora made them, even if they're not at the same supported level. I don't think its a problem to have Fedora people making Remixes. If you create a new secondary mark, the existing trademark guidelines would need to be amended to reflect it. ~tom == Red Hat _______________________________________________ legal mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/[email protected]
