Potential users should keep in mind that the "Fedora Remix" mark carries specific requirements too, which are easily met. One of those is clearly indicating that the remix in question is not an official product of the Fedora Project, and further indicating where to get official Fedora software. That clause is there to help prevent dilution of the brand and ensure that no one is confused about the origins of any particular software. -- Paul W.
