Hello all.
By the way, it's a shame that Fedora logos are non-free and can't even
be distributed by third-party projects.
For example, Simple icons library recently removed Fedora icons due to a
license infringement:
-
https://github.com/simple-icons/simple-icons/issues/5540#issuecomment-828502422
- https://github.com/simple-icons/simple-icons/pull/6892
I think, Fedora Project should revise Fedora logos licenses and allow
their usage.
The council has already fixed the problems with logo fonts (https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/386), and it is being included in Simple icons again (https://github.com/simple-icons/simple-icons/pull/5610). As for why this license exists, I would guess it is related to trademark rights and keeping the trademark alive, and so it is not easy to release it completely under a free license.
