There are! :)
From:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Trademark_guidelines#Publications
It is permissible to use the Fedora trademarks in the title and content
of a publication, provided that:
* the use is clearly in reference to the Fedora Project or its
software
* the use does not imply sponsorship or endorsement by Red Hat or
the Fedora Project
* Proper trademark symbols are used in connection with the Fedora
Trademarks and the trademark attribution statement must appear as
explained in Proper Trademark Use.
Hope that helps,
