@tolga_erok, you are great artist. It is really interesting what you do, very pretty.


In open source word software can be distributed freely and modified, but this does not include trade marks, brand names, logos etc.

In Fedora trademark guide it is stated: “The modified Fedora content should be referred to only as “Fedora Remix.” Other uses that do not properly indicate the work contains modified Fedora content or non-Fedora content are also not permitted.”

Also one sentence above is restriction of using phrases such as “built from Fedora”, “powered by Fedora”, “contains Fedora” etc.

Blufin/Aurora etc are build on top of Fedora and we love it and appreciate it, but our work in my humble opinion deserves its own branding. I suggest to remove Fedora completely. Because if Fedora Aurora is written, it looks like official Fedora project has released Aurora, witch is not true and should not be mistaken this is Fedora project derivative.

In my humble opinion Universal Blue projects already makes recognition with dinosaurs and having that and some beautiful aurora itself with Aurora title would be interesting to see - but I am not an artist to do this pretty enough, but you probably can.

It looks like Fedora is embed in many places. In my humble opinion we are in the thin ice of violating Fedora trademarks.

I know we greatly appreciate what Fedora is doing, but to avoid some conflict we should remove Fedora where ever possible.

We are standing on shoulders of giants like Fedora and we would like to thank them. But they are also standing on shoulders of others like Mozilla, Linux kernel and plenty of other software, so we should also thank others. But then it would be a mess.


I think its totally fine and looking at the trademark site, community projects are still ok.

Also as this is not a distro and the base is fedora, it is fine and also appilicable to tell it.

This is getting fixed and investigated. That was not supposed to happen and it affects Bluefin/Aurora right now. Bazzite still properly displays as “…FROM Fedora”

Yeah this was an unintended consequence of us fixing up our os-release files, everything was fixed this morning and all the images have been refreshed.
