I think "Friends of Fedora" is a good name, and the Hashtag #WeAreFedora to use in Social Networks look pretty cool.

"We are Fedora"  is the best in my opinion.

I think this idea is fantastic, but I'm a little concerned about the
name "affiliate".  That word is often used to represent a financial
relationship between a company and another person or company who helps
the first company get more sales in exchange for a percentage of the
sale.  Since there's no financial relationship here, might it make sense
to look for a different name to describe the relationship?

I think that's a valid concern. An alternative that immediately comes to mind is "Friends of Fedora", but I'm not sure if that's too cliché or if it's been used in the past. It might also make sense to do this to tie it into our Four Foundations too.

Some other alternative names could be...

* Partners (maybe the same problem)
* #FedoraLive (or something similar, insinuating Fedora being "live" in the field)
* #WeAreFedora (taking from #WeAreRedHat a little, empowering people / organizations using Fedora)

Just a few ideas. Let me know if any of these sound better!
