The logo in the package with the TM was put there for a specific,
approved purpose. Just because a graphic is in the fedora-logos package
doesn't mean it's a free-for-all to use however you want. For example,
we have an approved version of the logo that is in greyscale, and there
may be limited instances in which you would want to use a greyscale
Fedora logo in Fedora - that doesn't mean that in writing or modifying
an application in Fedora that you can just snag that greyscale logo and
not be in any violation of the logo usage guidelines or the intended
usage of the logo. The vast majority of usages of the Fedora logo (which
I admit are dwindling down to 1 or 2 at this point) should be in
full-color, and the usage of the approved greyscale version is meant to
be really limited.

The context in which the logo is displayed, outside of whether or not it
has a TM, is also important, and really should be discussed before it is
changed. I believe all of these changes to the logo's display taking
place without any discussion is a big reason why the changes have blown
up into these long and upsetting threads.
