I think they're doing it right, yeah. Their remix is listed at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/List_of_Fedora_remixes#CloudRouter and the representation as a Fedora Remix at <https://cloudrouter.org/getting-started/> looks in-line to me. > 2) what is the relationship, are they just consuming our work and > wanting to use the brand to their advantage? They're building on our work. As the trademark guidlines say, ". The Secondary Mark provides downstream distributors a means to indicate their work includes or is derived from Fedora content, and thereby drive more interest in the Fedora Project itself." -- I think that's pretty much exactly the situation here. One approach would certainly be to ask them to use the Fedora Remix mark and a statement like "CloudRouter is proud to be a Fedora Remix" or similar, rather than the main logo and the list-of-sponsors thing. > 3) are they actively contributing? Not in a high-profile way that I am aware of; let me see if I can push on that. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/council-discuss The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.
