What the hell Steven? I was giving feedback and you give me snark? You want
to do that email me privately. Don't use the lug mailing list.
Moving on It's clear you know nothing about logo use because in the case of
redhat it's a registered trademark. Wikipedia or wherever you got it from
may have permission to use it. Go visit their site. Go and read what they
put up there regarding their logo use.
It's clear my being a member of the LUG offends you somehow despite the
fact I generally don't attend the meetings and post very little to the
mailing list. I'll unsubscribe from the mailing list and leave it be.

The celebratory logo idea was Dave's... and it's not exactly harming you.
Also if anyone can/should pass judgement as to whether this is/isn't a
continuation or not (I don't care how it's viewed - either way) then I'd
say he has that say more than I... as he co-founded the LUG 20 years ago :)
I'm up for a chat on use of logo's... but show me an actual law. My guess
(not a solicitor)... is it's fair use especially as it isn't being used for
commercial gain.
I got all the logos from Wikipedia (an excellent source of vector's by the
way!)...
<sarcasm> Wikipedia must be just *drowning* in all that legal debt from
all their logo misuse! </sarcasm>

At work at the moment, So I'll be brief. Might want to check with the
owner of any logo's you use I know for a fact some of those you have
included here and others on the site (the red hat fedora as an example)
you need to get prior permission to use.
Also I really don't see the point in celebrating twenty years of their
being a lug when it's only just "relaunched" after being mothballed for a
good few years. We're in October now as well and I think projects such as
finishing off the LUG website and getting rid of that awful 90's under
construction sign would be a better use of function office's time.
