Hello Guys, I realize lectures and events on openSUSE for students and staff, but many ask for a document "Declaration of Attendance at Lecture," but I do not know if I issue this document with the logo of openSUSE and Novell. Can I issue this document normal information at the bottom of the cabeçalio Novell and the Novell logo and openSUSE? Here's an example to give you, click the link: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9io6kz-fFfZTUJIc3hxMWM5S3c I look forward to a return.

Hello Guys,
I realize lectures and events on openSUSE for students and staff, but many ask for a document "Declaration of Attendance at Lecture," but I do not know if I issue this document with the logo of openSUSE and Novell.
Can I issue this document normal information at the bottom of the cabeçalio Novell and the Novell logo and openSUSE?
If I am not wrong, the answer should logically be: Novell - NO openSUSE - Yes.
Here's an example to give you, click the link: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9io6kz-fFfZTUJIc3hxMWM5S3c
The format seems to have no Novell logo currently.
I look forward to a return.
Ideally, you should still wait for a word from someone "in charge". I don't know who qualifies. I'd definitely put my money on "No Novell" though, as it makes no sense to include them if you're not affiliated.

Hello Guys,

What do you mean lectures? Who asked you for something like that and for what usage? Why do you need a Novell logo or any logo at all?
Can I issue this document normal information at the bottom of the cabeçalio Novell and the Novell logo and openSUSE?

I think you should read again http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Ambassadors and http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Ambassadors, and then tell us how what you are asking has something to do with all that.
I look forward to a return.

I see this as one of contining confusion here, so if I cam jump in and clarify a few things: 1. Novell -- Novell has been separated from the community after the purchase by Attachmate a year ago. The company you are thinking of now is SUSE. 2. Even if you are thinking of SUSE, it still isn't applicable here. We are ambassadors for the openSUSE Project, not for the SUSE Company. We promote the *community-driven* organization. 3. SUSE is a sponsor of openSUSE Project, and a very important one. However, SUSE does not own the project, we -- the community -- owns the project. And we are here to help promote the project and all its wonderful initiatives. We aren't here to promote SUSE, although we do support and love SUSE very much. SUSE has its own paid staff that promotes the company itself. Summarized: We are not an un-paid function of SUSE Company. We are a volunteer group of openSUSE Project organization. Therefore, any formal letter or certificate you wish to see issued would have the openSUSE logo on it and nothing more. (In some cases, for specific types of documents, we may see "sponsored by SUSE." But that is still not a formal logo of recognition for your efforts.) For clarification on how you can use the openSUSE logo, please visit the trademarks guidelines page at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Trademark_guidelines_use_cases I see no problems issuing certificates from the Ambassador team to certify someone as an ambassador if they need it. (Self printed as a pdf though.) But, I don't see why we need a letter for lectures though. You should probably clarify what you mean by that as Kostas keeps asking. It is impossible for the team to verify from far away who attended a lecture. In most cases, if an event issues a certificate then that event will take care of it along with their own logo certifying that you were a speaker at their event, especially if it is not an openSUSE-organized event. I don't see openSUSE Ambassador team issuing such certifications because we usually aren't there at such location to verify a task was accomplished. Following the guidelines for trademark usage, if you feel you wish to hand out certification letters to the attendees stating that they were at your lecture, I think you can do that on your own. It should not be a problem as long as the topic was about any of openSUSE's initiatives. That's something that you, as a speaker, can decide. Some lectures out there do provide such letters as proof of attendance. We used to do that a lot in the United States but that's not practiced much anymore. Paper is just paper and no one around here values it much anyway. Some cultures still value that paper though, and that's what the guidelines are there for, to assist you in using it where it is appropriate and applicable. Beyond that, I really don't see what it is you need/can get from the openSUSE Ambassador Team.

Hi Geraldo, Let's give an 'official' answer to the Novell question: NO WAY you (or anyone) can use a Novell logo without asking Novell. And Novell, having nothing to do with SUSE or openSUSE, will surely not be OK with it. Note that SUSE is an independent entity now... openSUSE logo is a different thing, as openSUSE people we can use it but the logo guidelines have to be followed, see http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Trademark_guidelines The link to 'Advocacy Groups' there tells you what you need to know. If you deem it necessary to give out a certificate of attendance to the attendees of your sessions, it is possible as Carlos noted. Most of this has been said already, I just wanted to try and clarify it. And please do not state you're an ambassador until you are, btw, the bar is low but it should be respected. Jos
