More along this line of discussion:
We did take the decision to nix the color schemes. I'm now, in
retrospect, not sure how well this was communicated -- evidently
not well
enough -- so forgive me for that.
In related news: we have commissioned a free font for use with
Fedora. I
don't want to go into too many details on this yet -- I want to
make sure
that we've got good stuff before I shoot my mouth off too much --
but I
see this font being used extensively in conjunction with the logo
treatment.

Didn't we decide to go monochrome? I mean no color extensions?
I didnt see any such discussions anywhere in this list.
I remember a discussion about this long ago, but no ultimate
decision.
In any case, here's my vote for no color extensions. At one time
I dug
this idea, but after more careful consideration, I think they're
distracting and interfere with the unity of the project. The
blue color
is a distinctive thematic element, and I think swapping it for every
subproject is a mistake.
Simply changing a name that appears under the word "fedora" would
be a
better idea. I think trying to incorporate some additional graphic
element referencing the subproject name is probably also a bad move,
because it would make the resulting amalgam too busy.
I have to agree with Paul on this, also finding enough colors that
are
complementary to the blue theme will get difficult and confusing as
projects are added.
