I had a kickoff session on DevConf three months ago and currently trying to get blessing from FPC and possibly other authorities in order to get approval for doing changes in the Fedora sources, but the guidelines for maintainers are not ready yet and we're waiting for the first test results. We're really at the absolute beginning and it's difficult to get attention in such early state. I consider the project to be affiliated with Fedora a lot as the purpose of this project is to bootstrap Fedora. And honestly, Fedora really needs that like people need air and water. > This status would determine > whether or not we could use the Fedora trademark as a component of its logo. > > I suggest you reconsider the name, as Bootstrap is a *very* popular CSS > framework and we use it for the Fedora websites, so there's already a > lot of stuff on search engines for 'Fedora bootstrap.'

Well, the original sources we are tweaking and wrapping with a testsuite were called 'Fedora Bootstrap' more than 3 years ago and changing the name would probably be more confusing than helpful. The purpose of the project is not just building everything from scratch, but also to help with partial bootstrap. Even related rpm macros are called bootstrap and they're used widely in the fedora sources -> cannot be easily changed. In the past a project called 'febootstrap' existed, but is now inactive. Maybe we could make a new word 'Fedstrap' by joining both words, but it loses clarity of the current name and such change wouldn't make me happy. > If it is a Fedora-affiliated project, you can file a logo request ticket > at https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ - we have a template we can use > for Fedora-affiliated projects that would be very quick and easy (1-3 > days typically depending on who has time to take the ticket.)
