They don't need anyone's permission to "commercialize" Fedora, in the sense
of selling CDs, etc.  Our license gives them that right already.  But it
does look like they may be improperly modifying the Fedora logo, and they
probably also shouldn't be using Red Hat's Shadowman logo to market Fedora
products, which is what it looks like to me (without speaking Portuguese)
on this page: http://www.linuxmall.com.br/index.php?product_id=4675

But of course, I am not a Brazilian lawyer.  Fortunately we have Red Hat's
legal department to sort this stuff out.
