So, this is something that has puzzled me for a long time... Is there
a reason why this isn't a brandable element?

I honestly expected this to be something where we could put the
horizontal Fedora logo + wordmark variant (especially with the new
upcoming logo making this nicer looking, even in monochrome).

Also, like Matthew, I don't really understand the term "Activities" in
this context...
