That's ancient history at this point. History we'd of course rather not have to look back on, but we do. As of now, I think that Fedora is the most transparent commercially backed distribution out there.
This is pretty much the most accurate depiction of how the great brand gulf between Fedora and Red Hat started. And in many people's minds, that gulf has grown to such an extent that many don't have any way of associating Red Hat with Fedora *at all*.
Yep, sad but true.
So let me ask you:
If, in splash screens for Fedora, we put a tasteful "sponsored by Red Hat" with the Shadowman logo somewhere small... how would you all feel about that?
Go for it! Maybe we can attempt to repair some of the past "damage" to the brand. I help in correcting lots of people's perceptions that things are still how they were in the past.
Now the question is: Is rh_legal OK with this? :)
