Brings up an excellent question. Do they apply for just the main
Fedora trademark, or also the secondary mark? IMHO, we don't want to
be sullying the reputation of the secondary mark because we have a
sub-standard community-produced spin.
The "Fedora Remix" mark was invented precisely to avoid community
members having to go through an approval process.  I made a wiki page
for easy redirection if needed:
So.. lemme throw this out again. What do folks think about the idea that all spins in the spin-repository only carry the fedora mark. Not the remix mark. If we did this, it would be very easy for the Spin SIG to enforce the technical requirements.

Sounds right. If the word "Spin" is reserved for Spin-SIG & trademark
approved, then it's easy to explain what gets into the spin-repository
and what doesn't. Any aspiring Spin would therefore be a Remix until
it's approved, and for all remixes the technical quality and legal
status (with respect to non-Fedora content) is up to the remixer.

And.. if we want.. we can have a Remix-category which points to external sources of remixes. That way we are being good and promoting them, but saying that spins == trademarks.
