In the next two weeks the Fedora Unity Project is planning on releasing its first respin for FC5 + Updates. One thing we would like to know as we move forward is can it still be called Fedora? Do we have to call it something else, and just hint as to what it is? Maybe I should bring this to the board first.

Mark is on this list. We should be able to get his legal viewpoint quite easily.

FC5 + Updates is all packages that live under the "Fedora" blessing.

I'd like for us to be able to use the official Fedora logo on it -- if we call it Fedora Core 5, Update 1 or something else -- that naming is something we can work on.

Effectively, aren't we giving an updated snapshot of FC5 -- the one that people would get if the installed FC5 Gold and then ran yum update? So we're saving people time/bandwidth, and they get the same bits. I want to call that Fedora.


I have split this off in to a new topic.

Yes our point of view on this is that it is still Fedora Core just at a different point in time than the "official/formal" release. We are adding nothing that does not come from Updates, and we are only using the tools that are available from Core to produce the result.
