Re: "Arch Linux GUI" legit project?

"We recognise and encourage the concept of a "remix." Remixes are derived versions of Arch Linux, and it is intended that any software and hardware certifications will apply to a Remix. Therefore the changes from official Arch Linux products must be minimal to be permitted to use the Trademarks. These changes can include configuration changes through the existing Arch Linux configuration management tools, changes to artwork and graphical themes and some variance in package selection."

They don't seem to be providing alternate repositories, just an installer.

Actually, as per the Trademark Policy[1], there should be no issue as the
changes are "minimal and unsubstantial".

Providing your own ISO and repositories along with predefined configuration is
not a "minimal" nor "unsubstantial" change to Arch Linux.

It's a seperate distribution and I struggle to see how this would be allowed
under the trademark, but that is just to the project leader to decide.
