 Hello.

 This February we resurrected a project called "Fedora Bootstrap", that was
 started approximately 4-5 years ago. We requested an authorized logo since
 the former one didn't follow the trademark guidelines and then wanted to
 announce the project as Fedora affiliated, but according to Kevin Fenzi
 and Matthew Miller there might be a problem with the project name itself
 as it contains the word "Fedora". The purpose of the project is to cure
 Fedora specific bootstrap issues and it can not be used for other distros.
 Therefore changing the name just because of the legal stuff seems insane
 to me. Matt adviced me to request trademark permission here.

 The project homepage is at http://fedora-bootstrap.osop.rhcloud.com/

 Please, let me know whether we can keep the name and announce the homepage
 AS IS, or whether we need to do tweaks.

 Thanks in advance.

 Best regards,
 Jaromir Capik.

Comment (by spot):

 I think this naming is highly likely to clear Red Hat Legal (as I've
 stated in direct correspondence with Jaromir). I've put in the review
 request with RH Legal, but it likely won't happen for at least two weeks
 because of the Red Hat Summit.
