The upcoming secondary mark makes it possible for many downstream Fedora remix projects to drive interest in Fedora as the upstream and therefore they should be encouraged. We want to encourage remixes of Fedora to help spread free software and awareness of the project, which is why I embarked several months ago on a project to reform our trademark guidelines. We also need to consider remixes in the context of Fedora's mission of 100% free software, and any liabliity issues for the Fedora Project and our primary sponsor, Red Hat. I've asked the Board to see whether any sort of policy is needed on downstream Fedora remix project announcements in official Fedora channels like the low-traffic announce lists. As always we encourage community input and participation in the discussion. -- Paul W.
