Here is illustration  the document:
http://luya.fedorapeople.org/images/mockup-redundancy.png

You noticed there are at least four Fedora names on that page alone
which is an overkill
for header. I made illustration for suggestion below:

You see Release Note for Fedora 12 (using wordmark and "12" from MgOpen
Modata) based from CD/DVD sleeve suits well for the page.

I understand about the ears. As highlighted, there are a lot of repeated
words. I made an alternate version that preserve "Fedora" wordmark
(original color and black version included) for image replacing "Made
with Publican"
