| bluebomber | I read the trademark policy and logo usage guidelines for ubuntu, but I'm still not sure: Would it be ok to print vinyl or fabric 3'x6' ubuntu banners just like the LoCos receive? | 00:27 |
|---|---|---|
| bluebomber | (I am unsure mainly because one part of the guidelines states your materials cannot imply an official affiliation with Ubuntu if you haven't received permission from the council) | 00:28 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: Depends on what you're using it for. Is this for your LoCo or something similar? or something else? | 00:44 |
| bluebomber | Flannel, Yes, kinda. A student organization at my university. | 00:49 |
| bluebomber | Right now, I'm just borrowing the vinyl banner from our LoCo leader when I can, but he lives 3+ hours from where I live. | 00:50 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: Sounds like you're affiliated with that LoCo then? | 00:50 |
| bluebomber | I am, but our student organization events aren't organized by the loco | 00:51 |
| bluebomber | I am a member of the LoCo, yes. | 00:51 |
| Flannel | I meant "you" as in the organization. At the very least, they approve of your activities, etc? | 00:52 |
| bluebomber | Well, no, our organization isn't really affiliated with the loco. The loco supplied us with the banner and some CDs for a couple events we had. We're on good grounds, but we're not a "Ubuntu@USF" organization. | 00:54 |
| bluebomber | Yes, the loco approves of the events in which they helped. | 00:55 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: Even unapproved LoCos are able to use the Ubuntu moniker when describing themselves. If you're worried about your shindig being substantially different than an unapproved Loco, you should associate this student organization with the LoCo in some fashion, be a student branch or something. I'm sure you can wordsmith something. | 00:55 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: Hmm, So, maybe I should ask. Is this like an Ubuntu group at the uni? or what? | 00:55 |
| bluebomber | Flannel, no, it's a computer science student organization. Nothing dedicated to Ubuntu per se, but many of us support and advocate ubuntu. | 01:44 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: So, are you just interested in mentioning Ubuntu on something? or what? Obviously your organization isn't going to have Ubuntu in the title | 01:51 |
| bluebomber | Flannel: lol. | 01:52 |
| bluebomber | Back to step one: Hi, I'd like to print an Ubuntu banner like the ones that the LoCos get. May I? | 01:52 |
| bluebomber | Flannel: We've already had two events related to Ubuntu in which we have advocated Ubuntu. | 01:53 |
| bluebomber | It would have been nice to have a banner. | 01:53 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: Those banners just say "Ubuntu", so yeah, you're welcome to have the word "Ubuntu" displayed | 02:02 |
| bluebomber | Flannel, that's all I want. I was even trying to see if I could purchase one straight from Canonical. | 02:02 |
| Flannel | bluebomber: as far as I know, no, they're not selling them. | 02:08 |
| bluebomber | Flannel: I couldn't find them for sale anywhere, which is why I wanted to know if orgs/individuals could print their own. | 02:09 |
