Hi Robin,

As I understand it - correct me if I'm wrong - Red Hat isn't requiring
people to remove trademarks from GPL-covered source code, which would be
against the GPL. Rather, they are requiring people to remove trademarks
from images, banner files and such things, which have not been released
under the GPL.

good point about the images.

is it really against the GPL to make people remove trademarks from the code?

I seem to remember that Red Hat said they would always bee a free
software developer, in which case I'm not sure why the images and
banners not released under the GPL.

The Firefox trademark issue people have highlighted is a good example
too, I had forgotten about all that.

Regards, Jon
