Rahul,
If you want to call it "Fedora", then make it official.
Oh, believe me. I tried. I got one of the dozen spins hosted at
http://spins.fedoraproject.org and then it was stopped because of lack
of space or it was considered too much effort for composing all the
different variants or some much.
I'm confused on something here.
Can't you create the "Fedora Hindi Spin" if it otherwise meets the
spin guidelines, then host it where you would a Fedora Remix?
I don't recall that spins are required to be hosted from
spin.fedoraproject.org, it's more a matter of what packages are in the
composition.

Well, I'm not sure if I got it correctly, but as far as I understood the
policies, you need...
* Spin SIG's approval to get your kickstart file into the GIT repo
* Board's approval to be able to use the Fedora trademark, which
requires you to only use software that is in Fedora
* Rel-Eng's approval, which includes hosting on spins.fp.o and the
release of the spin together with a specific version of Fedora, so that
you can e.g. make it into the release notes or so
From my understanding, one should be able to get Spin SIG's approval
(for the technical side) and board's approval (for the legal / trademark
side) and host the spin then somewhere else, without having rel-eng's
approval. That way, you should be able to call it "Fedora [Something]
Spin" without having it hosted on spins.fp.o...
But that's just how I got it. Might be wrong, though.
