Thanks and great job!

Also, please let me know if for any reason I infringed any licenses or anything, since as you can see I included the OpenSUSE logo. Hope it is ok.

Logos are usually copy righted and cannot be used without specific consent from the owner.  To be on the safe side I would suggest you remove them.

What are the rules for the opensuse community using the opensuse logo?

See http://news.opensuse.org/2009/03/02/opensuse-trademark-guidelines- released/

I seriously hope the logo can remain on these pdfs.  They are a quality piece of support literature.  And it is now being hosted on the opensuse wiki which has the logo all over it.

Is there a way to submit them to the opensuse board etc. for approval to use the logo?

Yes, see above.

I think in this specific case, ask on the opensuse-project mailing list if the policy is not clear (haven't checked it myself),

The actual guideline is at http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/5/51/OpenSUSE_Trademark_Guidelines.pdf To me it is not clear in this case. ie. Several use cases are addressed, but I don't think this one is. I'll post a question on the opensuse-project mailing list.
