Hello All,
I'm back from my New York Vacation and I was reading up on the latest
Linux news. I read this article on Ubuntu Linux at lxer.com
<http://lxer.com> concerning a "beefed up" Ubuntu with legal multimedia
codecs being sold as a retail product. My questions are if some
Programmer wanted to "beef up" Fedora 9 or 10 with legal multimedia
codecs (DVD Reader Support, Blu-Ray Reader Support, Windows Media
Support, etc,) does that person have a right to sell it in that manner
to people online or in a store if that Linux was rebranded and all the
Fedora Icons/Themes were changed?
I would like to know so I can post the answer to that on my Linux Blog...
I can't wait to download the Fedora 10 Beta! :D
You don't have to change all the icons and themes. The Fedora trademarks
only apply to the name and logo. If you replace fedora-logos package
with generic-logos package and call the end result something other than
Fedora, you would have satisfied the trademark requirements. We avoid
Fedora branding in the default theme just to facilitate such derivatives.
