This discussion probably happens a lot of times. IMHO the project being
opens, doesn't means that every little piece of it needs to be open. Fedora
is not the only example, ask about Firefox (iceweasel case) [1], or even
the Ubuntu logo [2]. Graphical elements are delicate, and since there are
detailed instructions to use it [3], I think there is no reaons for create
flames about not being open, or is less free for that.
Finally, there are legals about trademarks [4] that everyone should read.
This doesn't mean that you can't collaborate, just that some things are
more delicate than others.

Well this is not very typical of "linux", right? If it can
be from
Microsoft or Apple. I thought I would collaborate in open with an open
source project and not with a private company. I already do this every day.
This disappoints me a bit but I am not who to say how you have to work,
that is evident. I am sorry.
