This, to me, is a perfect example of why we *need* two marks: the free Fedora mark and the protected Fedora mark. Strictly speaking, what Diana has done, in releasing all of these wallpapers as CC-BY-NC-ND, is *not even legal* in cases where they are derived from the Fedora logo -- is it? If we had a Free Fedora Mark, then we could dual-license the mark *itself* as CC Attribution/ShareAlike, and then Red Hat owned. That way, RH would be free to use the Free Fedora Mark for any purpose, but any other wallpapers/backgrounds/anything else would *have* to be released CC-BY-SA. And then we're more careful with the Protected mark. Because here's the thing: until we do this, no one will ever be able to do anything cool with the Fedora mark, ever. And I think that sucks. --g ------------------------------------------------------------- Greg DeKoenigsberg || Fedora Project || fedoraproject.org Be an Ambassador || http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors ------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 09 Jul 2006 12:24:29 +0100 From: Dimitris Glezos <dimitris@xxxxxxxxxx> Reply-To: Discussions on expanding the Fedora user base <fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx> To: Discussions on expanding the Fedora user base <fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: [Fedora-marketing-list] Fedora Wallpapers O/H Nicolas Mailhot έγραψε: > Le dimanche 09 juillet 2006 à 11:35 +0530, Tejas Dinkar a écrit : >> Hey, I was reading dfong's blog, and I found she has made a huge >> collection of brilliant Fedora Wallpapers, that are liscenced under the >> Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.5 License > > ... > >> My question is, should/do we have a page on the wiki dedicated to stuff >> like this? > > IMHO as long as the licensing is compatible, it should all end in a > fedora-extras package I believe that the CC Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.5 License of Diana's work is not compatible because of the Non commercial and No derivatives clauses. We could ask her to consider dual-licencing the wallpapers under the FDL or something compatible. -Dim -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos@xxxxxxxxxx, PGP: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."
