It wouldn't hurt if they put a disclaimer on their webpage. I imagine |
| 22 |
the same would be true of many of the other logos they display. |

There is this language in our policy: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
You may use the Gentoo name and logo on a list of services, tools, or |
| 27 |
supported platforms, or as an identifier that a product or service is |
| 28 |
Gentoo-related, provided that the usage of the name and/or logo does |
| 29 |
not imply that the organization is official or otherwise endorsed by |
| 30 |
the Gentoo Foundation, Inc., or by the Gentoo project, and that the |
| 31 |
name and/or logo acts as a hyperlink to the main Gentoo project |
| 32 |
website wherever technically possible. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I think they're pushing it - they probably should contact the |
| 35 |
foundation just to get their blessing, or just make it more clear that |
| 36 |
it isn't an official endorsement. We're actually not super-picky |
| 37 |
about the logo use but we do have a few rules. |
