I'm late and not as educated a remixer myself. I'm running a
livecd-creator process right now to see what happens in the generic-*
case. Would it make sense to have the Fedora Remix logos appear in
the generic-logos package by default?
Sorry to reply to self -- I discovered that the generic logos match
upstream, i.e. in the generic 10 spin, you get GNOME foor logos for
the GNOME desktop, which makes sense.
After further consideration I can see that a separate set of remix
logos would be useful. There are cases where the generic logos could
be useful as opposed to simply slapping Fedora Remix logos everywhere
by default.
Sorry for the noise.
