-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, we have a contributor who posted a modified logo with fedora-ve text in it. Is it valid to do such modifications? I dont want to punish him but certainly he has a point on localizing the logo somehow. What's the policy in this case? To encourgae him to make it "the right" or not to modify it at all ?

Hmm, it can be a good idea. I will try to find some local vendor willing to cover part of the costs. Regards, Pawel Sadowski

[Fedora-marketing-list] Preparation of Fedora T-shirts

by Pawel Sadowski

Hi, I have a question in connection with production of Fedora T-shirts. Due to many incoming Linux events in autumn, I will need a large amount of the T-shirts. Because it is much cheaper to produce it locally, I have decided to cooperate with a Polish shop which sells stuff connected with Linux and Open Source (www.linuxstuff.pl). I am thinking of something about 200 T-shirts. It will cost a significiant amount of money, so it will be difficult to cover it by my own prior to get reimbursement. Would it be possible to e.g. get half of the needed amount and pay to the shop and later, after the stuff is received, pay them the second half, or something like that? Or maybe have you other ideas how to proceed that? Regards, Pawel Sadowski

[Fedora-marketing-list] New Fedora test lead begins work

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi Interesting how many of those commenting on this talk about Fedora Core 5 being a distinct improvement. Having the needle move from changing perceptions to managing expectations is a nice challenge.

[Fedora-marketing-list] Derivate distributions and GPL

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi "The article revealed that many distributions' maintainers were erroneously assuming that they did not need to provide source repositories for packages they did not modify, so long as the original upstream distribution did provide the source code. This responsibility is by no means new, but seems to have been widely overlooked. David Turner, GPL compliance officer at the Free Software Foundation, suggested that these distros might come into compliance by making some arrangement with the upstream supplier. Turner's suggestion was rejected by Max Spevack, Fedora Board chair, partly because of the possible expense, but chiefly because it might encourage forking and leave the upstream distribution open to legal liability for the downstream one." http://trends.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/07/07/2044245&from=rss Not sure how a agreement with upstream would encourage forking. Max, can you expand on that? Needless to say, a better working arrangement with derivative distributions is pretty important for Fedora. We have a number of Fedora derivatives out there that could be doing interesting modifications that we need to look at. Rahul

[Fedora-marketing-list] Fedora Wallpapers

by Tejas Dinkar

Hey, I was reading dfong's blog, and I found she has made a huge collection of brilliant Fedora Wallpapers, that are liscenced under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.5 License Pics Here: http://www.isity.net/blog/?p=19 http://www.isity.net/blog/?p=24 http://www.isity.net/blog/?p=25 etc, etc... till http://www.isity.net/blog/?p=34 and at http://www.isity.net/blog/ in general. My question is, should/do we have a page on the wiki dedicated to stuff like this? Perhaps keep a thumbnail and link back to dfong's blog on the Fedora wiki. Gja
