Efstathios,

I would like very much to see additional resources for Fedora
Ambassadors and users in Greece.  I am copying this message to
Dimitris Glezos and Papadeas Pierros, to ensure we're all working
together to achieve that goal.

The domain you proposed above does not require special licensing,
because it is using the Fedora name *above* the organizational name
"greeklug.gr".  As I explained elsewhere, our artwork is CC BY-SA 3.0
and it may be reused and remixed freely according to that license.
This does not include the Fedora trademarks like the logo, which have
specific requirements around their usage.
