The Fedora Workstation effort as part of Fedora.next is a specific
choice we've made as a project to work on and showcase stronger
branding.
Let me be blunt: before we 'exert our brand' any more, maybe it is
worthwhile to investigate briefly what connotations the wider public
actually has with the Fedora brand.
I can make some guesses:
- Bleeding edge
- Broken updates
- Selinux breakage
- Slipped release dates
Maybe we should spend less time debating where to put the logo, and more
time on how to turn those perceptions around ?
