I worry that we're using the Trademark Guidlines as a means of imposing artifical scarcity of resources. I want to get at the difference between where something is DECIDED or DETERMINED and where it is VERIFIED or BLESSED. Help me fill in the blanks below, please. * The contents of the kickstart file is DETERMINED by ???? and the contents of that kickstart file are BLESSED by ???? * The tools and process by which the kickstart file is turned into an ISO is determined by ???? and BLESSED by ???? * The actual running of those tools and following of that process is done by ???? and VERIFIED by ???? == I think this next question is related, but I'm having a hard time drawing the line from the above to it, so I'll just throw it out here. There is a difference between "an official Fedora spin" and "a spin of Fedora that follows the trademark guidelines". Which is Fedora on [EC2/Linode/some-cloud-provider]? It's the second. Right? --Max _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
