Hi,
Just one question, which of the "parts" where we had trouble still
exists? I mean where we had to extend the logo guidelines, cloud became
very fast Atomic and looking to this logo it looks different to the
other ones. The cloud version before matched much more to the other ones.
So why should we change a well established branding for some things that
are shorter in life? I mean if I look around me, if I go the parking
area of a university I definitely find some bike with an Fedora sticker
and they actually know - thats Fedora and what it is and how long it
took me to get to this point. With some of the points it would be so
serious changes that I would have to begin at zero. Not to mention it
would take us years, to equip all Ambassadors new.
So when there shall be done something it has to be carefully and I dont
see that coming

Hi Onyeibo,
It's the Fedora logo itself that has issues. The other logos I
mentioned were just something that had to be discussed in updating our
logo docs that brought up the topic of changing the Fedora logo.
Cheers,

What do you think fellow, design team members? Full
disclosure, I brought this up to Matthew yesterday when we
were discussing the ticket on converting the logo guidelines
to asciidoc. We realized they have to be updated with some of
the new stuff we've been working on (Fedora IoT logo, Fedora
CoreOS logo, etc). And I complained about how I wish I could
update the logo too :-) I think a lot of us have struggled
with the inability to do one color and the off-centeredness of
the bubble. (And wouldn't an open source font be nice??) ~m

It's not just about problems -- as we're getting into Year
15, and
five
years (!) of Fedora.next <
http://Fedora.next>, our
editions strategy is drifting away
from
"Fedora + logical thing" (like "Fedora Server" or
"Fedora
Cloud")
into more
unique brands like "Fedora CoreOS" or "Fedora
Silverblue".
As I
said at
Flock, the important thing about Fedora to me is the
_people_ — I'd
like
"Fedora" to be more assocated with the project and the
community
rather than
our software artifacts. I'd love to have a logo which can
work as a "community umbrella". What do you think?
This logic makes sense to me. I'm also open-minded to a 2018
refresh. There should probably be some level of engagement
with the Fedora Design Team on this too. It is too bad tattoos
aren't as easy to update as Fedora. :)
