This is what I am looking for, btw.  It has worked extraordinarily
well in the Fedora Project.  It's a collective editorial voice about
code, packaging, content, graphics, and so on, all done the open
source way, all fully buildable from source in every component
everywhere and fully remixable/redistributable save for one thing --
the Fedora mark.  Only the collective editorial voice can apply that
brand to some "thing".

It takes the idea of 'brand' so far beyond marketing-MBA-speak it's in
orbit around the Sun.
