I am asking the Fedora Board to reconsider the full impact of agreeing to Mozilla's trademark restrictions and whether it is in line with Fedora's stated goals. Renaming is one choice the Fedora Board has. Talking to Mozilla about it might be another. I think, at the minimum whatever permissions are granted to Fedora should be available for the entire Free software community and not be exclusive to Fedora. I think that matters whether or not it is copyright restictions (which we don't allow) or trademark restrictions (Firefox) or patent restrictions (Fluendo MP3 codec). Otherwise what stops us from including Fluendo MP3 codec by default in Fedora? I would be interested to hear the rationale that excludes one but not the other.
