Dear openSUSE-Project, dear "Contact Information" (permission@novell.com) With the release of the first openSUSE Trademark Guidelines [1], we see the big advantage to get the problem around the covered topics addressed. Thank you very much! We, the openSUSE-Education project, are a small community driven project aiming to optimize openSUSE for use at universities and schools as well as for education usage by schoolers or students. We've created "Add-on" Medias containing additional applications for already released openSUSE distributions. We've also created some manuals and HowTos (in the openSUSE-Wiki[2] and as PDF[3]) describing how to add the Add-on Media to an installed openSUSE distribution and use the additional software. Our repository is hosted by a server available under the URL www.opensuse-education.org. Regarding to your Trademark Guidelines, we've the following (permission) questions: 1) Are we allowed to use the Name "openSUSE-Education" as Project name? Note: our Add-on Media is called "openSUSE-Education 1.0 for openSUSE $version" 2) Are we allowed to use the domain opensuse-education.org ? Note: the homepage already contains a pointer that we're a community driven project. 3) Are we allowed to use any openSUSE Logos|Mark on our project homepage and documentation/presentations? 5) Are we allowed to use a modified form of the openSUSE-Logo ? Currently, we've * a small Gecko with a doctoral cap on his head [4] * a full Gecko with this head and the "logotype" openSUSE-Education 6) Are we allowed to use our current CD-Cover for the Add-on Media as it contains some "openSUSE" words in it? 7) Is it this right: we can create an installable openSUSE Media containing our own addtiional applications - but we have to remove all openSUSE Marks from it. ? Looking forward to your reply.
