When to rebrand fedora?
by Bryan Kearney 01 Aug '08

01 Aug '08

I have a question. The other day I put out a sugar desktop appliance [1] based on F9. It was pointed out that I violated the fedora trademark policies. I did some digging, and the relevant page seems to be [2]. My question is what is a "modification". If you look at my kickstart file [3], you see that I did 2 things which could be it: a) I added package from a foreign repo that is also in fedora (xulrunner) b) I added packages to to the appliance from a foreign repo Does anyone know which item (a or b) was the actual issue? I bring this up here since as ISVs begin to get more integrated with fedora, it is possible that they will ship appliances, live-cds, live-usbs, install media, etc. It would be nice to know when it is necessary to re-brand to stay in compliance with the trademark guidelines. BTW.. it was pretty easy to rebrand the appliance, so this is not an issue of effort.. more of clarity. -- bk [1] http://sugar.s3.amazonaws.com/sugarAppliance.tar.gz [2] http://fedoraproject.org/legal/trademarks/guidelines/page5.html [3] http://sugar.s3.amazonaws.com/sugar.ks
