Let's just say that it'd be hard for them to argue we cannot

trademark when on the other hand when we asked it didn't seem to have

trademark being used by those who build the brand to begin with.
Anyway, as legally and practically are two completely different things
still, we'd appreciate if you'd attempt to get them to answer whether
or not we can expect trouble.
Then there's the question of whether we use the trademark or not. I'm
thinking using just "Fedora" in the name is already considered "using
the trademark" isn't it?
I just sent an email to the Fedora Board list, copying both Jeroen and
Gerold, that explains the whole thing, and asks the Board to give an
official "ok" about this whole thing.
In my opinion, this thread can pause for now. The Fedora Board meets
tomorrow.
