Thinking about this a little more, I guess that the answer might depend upon the specifics of the logo itself. So here is a list of the logos I would like to use and as best as I can find it the information about trademark restrictions for each one. Or at least the restrictions that each company is claiming. ----- - Windows, various logos https://www.microsoft.com/about/legal/en/us/IntellectualProperty/Trademarks/Usage/Windows.aspx https://www.microsoft.com/about/legal/en/us/IntellectualProperty/Trademarks/Logo/Programs.aspx - FreeBSD http://www.freebsd.org/logo.html - Linux "generic" Tux penguin http://www.isc.tamu.edu/~lewing/linux/ - ArchLinux http://www.archlinux.org/art/ https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:TrademarkPolicy - Debian ("open use" logo) http://www.debian.org/logos/#open-use - Fedora - Gentoo http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/name-logo.xml - Linux Mint (no logo guidelines AFAICS) - Mandriva http://wiki.mandriva.com/fr/uploads/9/9b/Charte_graphique_officielle.pdf This doesn't give much guidance. - Meego http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_Style_Guide#Trademark_Usage http://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/linux-foundation-trademark-usage-guidelines - Pardus (can't find any logo usage guidelines) - Red Hat http://www.redhat.com/f/pdf/corp/trademark_usage.pdf - Slackware http://connie.slackware.com/~msimons/slackware/grfx/grfxfaq.txt (seems very permissive) - Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy ----- Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.
