That's why packages and spins exist, so that we can substitute a package if we need to. If this package is not on the media we're distributing in events, then it shouldn't be a problem. If it is/will be, then we should do exactly what we are doing with OpenOffice in Brazil (which is trademarked): We have a different spin for it: "Fedora-11-i686-Live-BrOffice This spin is intended to be a Brazilian Portuguese localized spin that provides the legal brand for OpenOffice.org in Brazil." I'd encourage everyone to understand that Fedora is much, much bigger than what we think it is in our own realm. We ship our product in a bunch of countries, and the only real problem that we should be worrying about in this case should be: "does having such a package on our repos (and not on our media) break a law in USA which, through the trademark bridge, could hurt Fedora and Red Hat"? If the answer is no, then there should be a very serious reason to oppress the "Freedom" foundation of Fedora. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
