The way I see it, the logo is the combination of the the two parts you mention. But it doesn't matter what I think or what you think, it matters how "the logo" is defined as in the usage guide. Which is why the usage guide is important. What constitutes the logo and how it is used becomes not a personal decision on a case by case basis, but a uniform policy.

Logo guidelines status.

by Gain Paolo Mureddu

It's been a couple times now that I have sent a request for the Logo just like what the "current" guidelines indicate, and have never got back the said e-mail with either further instructions, questions or a direct rejection, only silence... And i can't help but wonder, what's the status of the Fedora Logo guidelines and terms of use, since the Wiki simply is not very informative. Any news about it? I'd really like to use vector versions of the images instead of plainly copying the pixmaps off the site, but apparently that ain't going to happen (not to me, at least). In any case, I'm hoping to be able to work on some DVD case covers and a manual I am working on (which I would like it to feature the logo)... Is there a place where I could obtain a copy of the logo (just the bubble+f+infinite) in SVG format? And another question I had been having was about the whole issue with the font, has the font been released as Open and Free yet? I would have expected to find it bundled with Core 5, but it did not come, so I assume that by the time Core 5 got leaked, the font wasn't yet released... *rant to self* I still wonder why a proprietary font was used for the logo of a project like Fedora *sigh* (sorry, had to get that out of my chest).

fedora on Orkut

by Tejas Dinkar

For some incomprehensible reason, The Fedora Community on Orkut is pretty big, and there are many people who choose to ask their Fedora Related doubts in the Orkut community, rather than on Fedora Forum or in the IRC channel. http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=1388 Anyone have any interesting views on this? Like how we can reach more people via Orkut? Gja

Sporting goods retailer now sporting Linux everywhere

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi Just about every Backcountry.com employee is running Fedora Linux on the desktop -- 50 workstations in the warehouse and 60 in the call center. "We have a policy that any machine replaced doesn't get Windows put back on it," Jenkins says. "It's Linux migration by attrition." Jenkins manages support for an inconsistent mix of desktop operating systems by utilizing the vast skills of his IT staff, who are well-versed in both Windows and Linux environments. The transition has been invisible to the users, he says, because all the server and desktop applications are accessed via a browser. "As long as I can get a browser window we're good to go." http://business.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/04/13/1959240 Rahul

The Increasing Importance of Community

by Max Spevack

A reasonably interesting read -- a bit fanboyish toward Ubuntu in places, but here is one part that jumped out at me regarding Fedora: "It is evident that with a strong community behind these distributions, they can indeed become better in terms of engineering and adoption. Fedora is a classic example of this - as it has become more and more community driven, the quality has grown further and further. It is now a very impressive distribution and one that has a comprehensive backbone of developers, documentation writers, translators and users." http://oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/9330 http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/05/01/110203 Continuing to build a strong community around Fedora is one of the most important things that we can do. We've made good progress in the last few months. Gotta keep the momentum going. -- Max Spevack + http://people.redhat.com/mspevack/ + gpg key -- http://people.redhat.com/mspevack/mspevack.asc + fingerprint -- CD52 5E72 369B B00D 9E9A 773E 2FDB CB46 5A17 CF21
