The article "Herzstück"(¹) about Fedora Core 5, published in c't 8/2006, Page 82 (sold for two weeks on stands in Germany/Austria/Switzerland and selected other parts of the world, starting from 3. April 2006) contains a screenshot where the right part of the default FC5 background(²) is visible; both the Fedora logo and the Fedora wordmark are visible. Is that something that we are looking for? I can get hold of a hardcopy easily if needed.
