To Mark’s earlier point, this is the relevant language in 4.1(b) (<a href="http://www.openstack.org/legal/bylaws-of-the-openstack-foundation/" target="_blank">http://www.openstack.org/legal/bylaws-of-the-openstack-foundation/</a>):<br>

"The other modules which are part of the OpenStack Project, but not the Core OpenStack Project may not be identified using the OpenStack trademark except when distributed with the Core OpenStack Project."<br>
<br>
In this sentence "distributed with the Core OpenStack Project" is another way of saying "distributed with the integrated release.” Since Heat and Ceilometer are part of the integrated release starting with Havana, as voted on by the TC, the projects (a.k.a. "modules") can be referred to with an OpenStack generic name, such as "OpenStack Orchestration," without being added to the "Core" list. Other modules such as Devstack which are not distributed as part of the integrated release could not as they don’t meet the exception in the sentence above.<br>
<br>
To provide some context from the drafting process when this was written, the intent was to arrive at a set of modules explicitly approved by the Board as part of the Core OpenStack Project which would be useful for determining interop and commercial product and service trademark usage. This is along the lines of the “spider” work that has been going on. The exception in the sentence quoted above from 4.1(b) was to allow for an integrated release that included additional modules that the TC felt had the technical merit to be developed, released and distributed as part of the total set of OpenStack software, but that may not have the universal applicability of a module of the Core OpenStack Project that became a required component for commercial trademark use.<br>
