My point was that Fedora is not free to distribute the whole logo (text
+ image) due to the fact that the font is not open or free, which seems
a bit strange for a FLOSS project.
We are completely free to redistribute the rendered logo, just not the font
that is used to produce it. This simply means that people cannot reproduce
the full logo or extend it with more text in the same font unless they
purchase the font separately. We can do anything we wish with the vector or
raster forms of the logo. The guidelines will establish what powers the
community has to use our logo, and after the guidelines are made readily
available, so will key files needed to produce new artwork using the logo.
Existing style references can be found among the Fedora Artwork pages.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork
There won't be much coverage of the logo among those pages until the
guidelines are available.
