So, what would Ubuntu GNOME need to do to differentiate their logo
from the 'normal' GNOME logo?
Anything which would make the logo look like a different logo. You can
find an interesting article about this at
http://lwn.net/Articles/491639/ (there is a section specifically about
GNOME towards the bottom)
Can you clarify whether the issue is that this is using the GNOME foot
or that it is the GNOME foot in white with a blue background?
(not sure I'm looking at the right logo, but I only see the one from
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/OneStopPage)
Can they not use the GNOME foot at all?
Yes, under nominative use when referring to GNOME itself. The logo and
trademark guidelines are available at
http://www.gnome.org/logo-and-trademarks/
So I guess I didn't notice the time where we started to enforce this. I
do have issues with the guidelines, as I believe they're not working
well for a community driven project (and product!). I mean:
- "Always ensure that the logo is black or white, depending on the
background color (other colors are not permitted)"
=> we fail at this, as we produced relatively recently stickers with
a yellow foot, and I'm pretty sure there are still many cases
where this is ignored
- "Always ensure that the logo is not embedded within other images or
graphics."
=> we fail at this with the GNOME.Asia logo
