Hi,
Just one question, which of the "parts" where we had trouble
still exists? I mean where we had to extend the logo guidelines,
cloud became very fast Atomic and looking to this logo it looks
different to the other ones. The cloud version before matched much
more to the other ones.
So why should we change a well established branding for some
things that are shorter in life? I mean if I look around me, if I
go the parking area of a university I definitely find some bike
with an Fedora sticker and they actually know - thats Fedora and
what it is and how long it took me to get to this point. With some
of the points it would be so serious changes that I would have to
begin at zero. Not to mention it would take us years, to equip all
Ambassadors new.
So when there shall be done something it has to be carefully and
I dont see that coming

Hi
Onyeibo,
It's the Fedora logo itself that has issues. The other logos I
mentioned were just something that had to be discussed in updating
our logo docs that brought up the topic of changing the Fedora
logo.
Cheers,

What do you think fellow, design team members?
Full disclosure, I brought this up to Matthew yesterday when we were
discussing the ticket on converting the logo guidelines to asciidoc.
We realized they have to be updated with some of the new stuff we've
been working on (Fedora IoT logo, Fedora CoreOS logo, etc). And I
complained about how I wish I could update the logo too :-)
I think a lot of us have struggled with the inability to do one color
and the off-centeredness of the bubble. (And wouldn't an open source
font be nice??)

Our "freedom + infinity + voice" logo is awesome -- but it also has
some
problems:
* It doesn't work well at small sizes
* It doesn't work at all in a single color
* The "voice" bubble means it's hard to center visually in designs
* The Fedora wordmark is based on a non-open-source font
* I'm tired of explaining that it's not Facebook
As much as I love our "classic" logo, I think it may be time for a
refresh.
It's not just about problems -- as we're getting into Year 15, and
five
years (!) of Fedora.next, our editions strategy is drifting away
from
"Fedora + logical thing" (like "Fedora Server" or "Fedora Cloud")
into more
unique brands like "Fedora CoreOS" or "Fedora Silverblue". As I
said at
Flock, the important thing about Fedora to me is the _people_ — I'd
like
"Fedora" to be more assocated with the project and the community
rather than
our software artifacts. I'd love to have a logo which can work as a
"community umbrella".
What do you think?
This logic makes sense to me. I'm also open-minded to a 2018 refresh.
There should probably be some level of engagement with the Fedora
Design
Team on this too.
It is too bad tattoos aren't as easy to update as Fedora. :)
