Fedora EMEA and Trademark Usage

[Paul W. Frields]

The Fedora Board grants permission to use the FEDORA trademarks to the
new Fedora EMEA group, provided that it:

1.  furthers the Fedora Project's mission, adheres to its principles,
and uses proceeds exclusively for those purposes;
2.  promotes the Fedora brand in a consistent, positive, and
constructive way; and,
3.  makes a quarterly report to the Fedora Project Board.

The Fedora Project Board retains the rights to make its decisions
whether to permit usage of the FEDORA trademarks on a case by case
basis, and to limit or withdraw permission to use the Fedora trademarks
for any reason and at any time.

Previously, the Fedora Project has granted limited trademark use
permissions to the following unaffiliated groups:  Fedora News, Fedora
Forum, Fedora FAQ, Fedora Unity, and Fedora France.

Thank you Paul (and the rest of the Board) for the trust you have in 
Fedora EMEA, and thank you for clearing up the trademark issue and 
getting it out of the way for us in such a short period of time.

Kind regards,

I recommend that the Fedora Board delegate to me the responsibility of 
reporting back on "Fedora's progress in EMEA" frequently, and "state of

the Fedora NPO" as part of that report quarterly.

I can work with everyone, and put it together in a way that will be 
useful for the community, the Fedora Board, and Red Hat all at the same 
time.
