As some friends and me are preparing a series of Fedora events to take place in the coming months, we were wondering what is the correct term for "Fedora Linux" legally speaking. We will be making some stickers which amongst other things will feature the legend "Fedora Linux", and since Linux when used in certain contexts can be referred to as Linux®, also I remember that Red Hat refers to Fedora as Fedora™, so when put together both terms, what is the correct way to put them:

Fedora™ Linux®
Fedora Linux®
Fedora® Linux®

?

I do believe that the same applies to the Logo, where the Infinity Logo is accompanied by the ® symbol, but I'm not sure.

Thanks in advance for your inputs and clarifications.

We dont call the distribution "Fedora Linux". We currently call it "Fedora Core". There is currently a discussion about merging core and extras (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraSummit) and the new name post merger hasnt been decided yet but "Fedora" and "Fedora Linux" are potential candidates.

Currently you can call it Fedora Core™ but I would avoid the "TM" in normal references. The logo doesnt have any registered trademarks associated with it and the names are more casual.
