We've tried to make these little slogans into verb phrases, i.e. persuade people to try Fedora out, do something cool with it. The theme is not to glorify the Fedora distribution itself, but to assure people they can accomplish their goals using Fedora, and give them the power to do it. So I thought of: "Fedora 10 - Fire it up." (The metaphor is fire, power, energy.) Other slogans I tried out that didn't make my personal, mental cut for one reason or another: * "Shine brightly" (too affected, with the adverb) * "Power up" (not very translatable, or comprehensible to many people) * "Free. Radical." (not a verb phrase, maybe too politicized a term, and the wordplay probably doesn't translate) * "Be a star." (Oh, gag me.) -- Paul W.
