#33: Trademark approval for Fedora Atomic Host

 See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Two_Week_Atomic for background.

 "Fedora Atomic Host" is analogous to a spin — a new combination of
 unmodified Fedora software. This requires Council permission as outlined
 in the
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Trademark_guidelines#New_combinations_of_unmodified_Fedora_software
 trademark guidelines].

 Note that in this plan, Fedora Atomic Host releases will be built on only
 software provided by official Fedora repositories, but will not directly
 follow the main Fedora distribution release cycle. The Fedora Atomic Host
 releases will be numberless, and instead identified by their production
 date. (Either an exact date, or year + week number, or similar.)
 Therefore, we'd also like permission to use the phrase "Fedora Atomic
 Host, based on Fedora 22" and similar (e.g. "Fedora Atomic Host 2015-w50,
 based on Fedora 23", and so on, along with other minor typographical
 variants, e.g. "Fedora Atomic Host (based on Fedora 22)").

 I think this is an exciting new area for Fedora, and hope this is non-
 controversial, but trademark stewardship is not a lightweight matter, so
 I'd like to call for full consensus — at least three +1s and no -1s within
 seven days. Thank you!

 We will also use a logo designed by the official Fedora Design team. This
 will likely follow the
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/UsageGuidelines#Fedora_Sub-
 Logos:_Standard_uses_of_the_Fedora_Logo_with_other_elements standard sub-
 logo template] and not need additional Council approval; if the design
 team suggests something else which would need approval I'll file a
 separate request.
