Hi,

I recently realized that the name Fedora Activity Day branding is now
limited to get-things-done kind of events and now requires a different
budget process for approval to use the name.

Yes FAD means all sorts of hoops to jump thru (Im not saying that is bad. It's just a high bar, imho

I used to use the FAD name for generic events which I simply organize
various/random activities (talks, social gathering, workshop, games,
whatever-suitable-for-the-topic), and with the new rule for FAD name,
i don't think its suitable anymore for me to use that name.

Locally we have been using Fedora Fun Day for more generic hacking. Any other name we use is related to the part of the project it is Pi, arm, etc.

would be great if we can have an umbrella branding for generic
Fedora/FOSS events, for both identity and marketing purpose.

+1 Fedorans are using various names for non-FAD events. Having some common branding names would be great. It's not as if folks would be required to use some rubber stamp name for all events. A template mught not only save folks time- it might encourage a few to hold their own \o

just my 2cents ..
