As I wrote to you at the end of last year, you should be aware that the 
term "wog" in a few English speaking cultures (though not in the United 
States to my knowledge) is a derogatory term. Because of this you may 
want to rethink your website name rather than inadvertently offend 
anyone.

Also, don't forget to stay within the confines of GNOME's trademark 
policy: https://live.gnome.org/Foundation/LicensingGuidelines and ask us 
for permission to do anything outside of it. I see that now in the 
template, for example, it's unclear what kind of connection your website 
might have to the official GNOME Foundation and project.  I think you'll 
need to be particularly careful and clear, since you hope to use the 
name GNOME (our registered mark) in the title of at least one of your 
URLs.
