To run their own donation collection box..no of course not. And they are free to do that. But if they wanted to associate that collection directly with the Fedora project brand, leveraging the Fedora brand value to increase interest in donation, but handle all the details of the collection and distribution...that would be a trademark issue I believe. I think from our own project perspective, having our name associated with donations going to support open upstream development is a good thing for the brand. But the devil is in the details as to how much of that donation would need to go to community. Obviously a 100% donation passthrough is something we could support with our brand. Anything less becomes murkier. -jef _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
