[Fedora-legal-list] Use of trademarked operating system icons (eg. Windows logo) in Fedora programs

[Richard W.M. Jones]

Thinking about this a little more, I guess that the answer might
depend upon the specifics of the logo itself.  So here is a list of
the logos I would like to use and as best as I can find it the
information about trademark restrictions for each one.  Or at least
the restrictions that each company is claiming.

- Windows, various logos
