Hi all,
There is now a draft permission letter working it's way through the CentOS Board. It is intended to cover permission for just the GNOME Project's use with GNOME Boxes.
This is *really* good news!
I am still pursuing resolving this within the guidelines, that will take more time.
What does it mean, exactly? Does it mean that a logo, as the one done for docker, will be prepared for Boxes usage meanwhile or that we'll have to solve the guidelines issues as the first thing?
Thanks a lot for helping us here!
Best regards,
- Karsten

From someone who doesn't know anything about design/legal, what is the difference between this instance and what was done in point 7.3 of the link (7.3. For special sub-projects)?
Essentially similar, in that specific permission was granted and a specific logo was prepared. In this case, the permission has been requested and there is not a corresponding logo prepared on the ArtWork page.
BTW, that is the logo only;
There are two aspects here:
- Should the project allow for the graphical logo to be used without
the wordmark?
- If yes to 1, the project should adjust one or both guidelines to
make it explicit what can and cannot be done.
For #1 it may be that we want to do so for various cases, but there may be reasons and risks we are not aware of in using the logo stand- alone in various situations. For this I am seeking expert advice.
As it happens, the trademark guidelines do allow for some uses of just the logo, point 5 here:
https://www.centos.org/legal/trademarks/#acceptable-uses
But there is not a corresponding graphic and how-to on the ArtWork page.
What I want to do is i) as quickly as we can resolve the question of permission for GNOME so they can move on with their development, and ii) fix any actual or perceived inconsistencies between the trademark guidelines and the logo usage guidelines.
Any news here?
