Hi,
I hope this is the correct list :)
I'd like to use Fedora as a base for an appliance including some closed-source components. Is this legal, when following the guidelines mentioned in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal/TrademarkGuidelines#Distributing_combina... ?
The questions is not about how the closed-sourced-components are linked, but more about, whether we can use fedora as a base or not.
Greetings fabian

IANAL, but this usage is permissible, provided that you use the secondary mark (or some other trademark) for the final product, and follow all of the other requirements in that section.

Note that these guidelines only apply to the TRADEMARK -the Fedora logo and "Fedora" itself, not the Free programs that are in Fedora; you are Free (again, capital F) to use those.
Kind regards,
