Dear community, I would like to bring up this topic once again because it is relevant for the well-being of CentOS visual identity, and its future improvements on the long-term. This mail is probably for Red Hat Liaison, considering the legalities involved in relation to CentOS branding matters. Nevertheless, I would like to keep the discussion open to collect the vast majority of opinions possible about it. Considering the CentOS brand is presently a registered trademark of Red Hat, the exact questions are: 1. Related to CentOS brand changes, and design improvements: What does Red Hat allow the CentOS community to do, and not to do? Here, please, consider the legal and not-legal matters. 2. Would it be possible for Red Hat to explicitly set the license under which the CentOS brand (creative/design) work is released, so to grantee its openness inside the CentOS community? If not, please, elaborate why, and share the expected process to follow in order to keep the brand design relevant through time. I deliberately have collected some thoughts[1] about the recent CentOS brand actualization process but am not sure if they are aligned with Red Hat needs and expectations. The goal here would be to make a very clean and simple statement about how much autonomy does the CentOS community have over its own brand. Also, complement the CentOS Trademark Guidelines[2] document with such information, since there isn't mention of it at the moment.
