The current geeko brings legal problems. There are only a few differences to the Suse logo. Which no one recognises.
There will be no choice to keep the old one.
Really? This would be quite important information which was not given in the news post.
I also think it’s false The current logo is a formally registered trademark Changing it will either require SUSE to pony up a rather large financial and red tape bill getting that changed Or, if we’re just abandoning the idea of openSUSE having a defensible trademark then there’s a huge change in the constitutional framework of the Project that hasn’t been communicated. Policies like our Trademark Guidelines will be effectively pointless and unenforceable if the logo isn’t a registered trademark. I imagine SUSE would require openSUSE to have a registered trademark as it’s logo given the project has the term SUSE in its name.. -- Richard Brown Distributions Architect SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, Frankenstraße 146, D-90461 Nuremberg, Germany (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Managing Directors/Geschäftsführer: Ivo Totev, Andrew McDonald, Werner Knoblich
