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. |

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". |

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... |
