Please revert to the previous version of Read if possible (v77) and check if it works. I'm trying to reproduce this, but I'm at a conference at the moment and can't download vm images. Also, regarding Project Gutenberg EPUBs, they are quite shoddy, so we should really consider whether including

Yes, the SFC has agreed to make a legal recommendation for or against bundling some eBooks with a Sugar distribution, but we will certainly not have a response by today. We will deal with this by promoting the new eBooks wiki page in the two guest blog posts. I will have the press release draft

To be clear, I have no issue with the Fedora remix logo where it is. My concern is confusion - the sugar logo in the center will represent well Sugar the interface and learning platform. In a corner, the sugar logo by itself would be ambiguous; it would be preferable to have the Sugar Labs logo
