IANAL, nor do I play one on the net. However... The "Powered by Red Hat" logo has the copyright intact, and I believe there's something in the docs we include that specifically allows the use of that logo on any webserver which is running on Red Hat Linux. So the use of that logo would be allowed in that context. Removing the copyright symbol in an attempt to get it professionally mass produced is another matter. Besides, I've seen kits on case modding websites to make your own case badges with professional looking results from just about any 1" x 1" logo. That could easily work wonders with one of the box-set stickers, and nobody needs to "feed the lawyers". -- Chris Kloiber -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
