Hm... that's kinda long text... So what *I* think about branding?
For us (meaning the Fedora Project) the brand should be Fedora (and by
far not just the logo).

Now the real question is how much we really want to promote the
Fedora
brand compared to upstream brands like GNOME, KDE, LXDE, XFCE and so
on... I am for as throughout Fedora branding as possible, but that's
just my personal opinion.
FWIW, I read that article as saying, "Let's work together on resolving
this problem I just described." There is a statement about making a
commitment to take what they give us *if we require them to do all the
work of making the art*. I presume, if we choose to work _with_ them
including adding some efforts from our Fedora designers, then we don't
have to commit to taking the result of the work.
Personally, I found the argument interesting and compelling, at least
enough to say we could open a dialog with the KDE upstream designers
on this. Maybe it turns out what they want will not work with
Fedora. But maybe it does, and we can meet half-way or so, and get a
bit more of what we all want.
