Okay, the snipped e-mail was a request to officially sell Gentoo merchandise |
| 5 |
in a non-US country where US imported goods are quite expensive or slowly |
| 6 |
reach their target. |

My opinion is that we should not allow this in any case but rather focus |
| 9 |
such requests to other designs that clearly reflect upon the Gentoo |
| 10 |
distribution but don't use the Gentoo g logo. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
If we would allow it (given certain conditions) it'll be difficult for us to |
| 13 |
decide on the conditions (which are broader than plain financials, we would |
| 14 |
also need to give a legal license to the shop to use the g logo) and verify |
| 15 |
that the conditions are met constantly. |

There is plenty of non-g-logo Gentoo artwork around, such as various styled |
| 18 |
versions of strings like "gentoo" (which requires a (tm) :), "emerge" or |
| 19 |
"portage". |

|
| 21 |
But perhaps we can create a nice, official Gentoo logo for public usage? One |
| 22 |
that everyone can use on his or her t-shirts and other stuff... |
