The paragraphs on fair use are of particular interest; you can do things like print T-shirts saying "Go Jabber(R)!" without asking, as long as you don't denigrate the product or community. (This is a clause we will absolutely need in any further licensing of the Fedora marks.) 2. Their "automated" application is not available, and apparently application has to be done manually through the executive director. Hmm, non-scalable. 3. Use of their "light bulb" logo is not included in the licensing terms. I like the fact that the guidelines are clear and readable to non-lawyers. (Ours aren't too bad either, for that matter.) -- Paul W.
