Hi Anne,

For questions around a specific use of the trademark, it’s best to contact us directly. You can open a ticket with an email to logo@openstack.org and we will work with our legal team to determine the right way to handle it. I’ll also try to join the TC meeting today.

One general comment though is that the Powered and Compatible licensing programs would not apply. Those are meant for commercial use and are generally implemented by downstream products and services.

Thanks for thinking through these implications,

Jonathan

Hi all, 

As the TC continues to add projects to the git openstack namespace, the projects want to publish to docs.openstack.org. Since all of our styling for docs has the OpenStack logo, do we need to take actions to accommodate these projects? Such as:

- Require proof signed contract based on definitions at http://www.openstack.org/brand/ from the projects that join through the TC process.
- Create doc themes that match definitions for Powered and Compatible that can be applied.
- Until these are in place, continue to have those projects publish to Read the Docs or other generic branded sites.

I'll bring this up at the TC meeting but I really need legal guidance.
Thanks,
Anne
