I think it is important to brand more than anything to identify something uniquely. I remember when i was still new to using fedora the fedora wallpaper that shipped with fedora 6 if i am not wrong. it showed the relation between the fedora f and infinity. this was a good principle. I would like branding to be implemented on things that will not affect the system easily . If you see a certain bug will arise then i think one needs to ignore it for now unless a solution comes up. I think seeing this is an open source formula a bug and its solution can come up in a matter of seconds. I strongly support branding! I think it will uniquely identify us any day! frankie On Sat, Apr 16, 2011 at 5:24 PM, Fabian A. Scherschel <fab@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Totally agree with Nicu on this.
