关于 Fedora 简体中文论坛

[Linus Lee]

我最近去看了看fedora中文用户组的邮件列表的存档，现在可谓是非常冷清啊。另外里面提及的很多fedora中文论坛现在都失效了。
我在想我可不可以给fedora建一个中文论坛呢？我觉得这还是有一定必要的，一个独立的论坛至少对于新手来说能提供很多帮助（当然，我目前也是新手，我只接触过debian系，red hat系对我来说还是全新的呢）。所以我想尝试一下。当然，我自己的能力是极其有限的。
然而我现在暂时找不到联系谁。各位如果有了解的，希望能告诉我。

我搜集了一些资料，好像的确没有简体中文社区，并且需要一个。我甚至看到知乎上有人提出了没有简体中文社区的问题。
我阅读了一下官方的说明：

Community sites and accounts
Fedora defines community sites and accounts as sites or accounts related to the Fedora Project, but not officially maintained by Marketing team members or Social Media administrators. They may be region or country specific and are usually run by an individual contributor or group of contributors. These sites are non-commercial in nature (they are not selling a product).

Examples of these pages include (but are not limited to):

placing the Fedora Trademarks on a personal website or blog to support the Fedora Project;

making or running a group or account on a social networking web service to support the Fedora Project; or

linking to the Fedora Project from a website to provide information or show support for the Fedora Project.

It is permissible to use the Fedora Trademarks on community sites and accounts to show your support for the Fedora Project, provided that:

use of any Fedora logo hyperlinks to the Fedora Project website, https://fedoraproject.org/, or if that is not possible, the site includes a prominent link to the Fedora Project website at https://fedoraproject.org/.

the site indicates clearly that it is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Fedora Project; in addition:

the site must include the text "This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Fedora Project" prominently on any page that includes the Fedora Trademarks;

if the Fedora Trademarks appear in a page header or any area that is designed to be presented on more than one page, the notice must also be designed to be presented on all of those pages as well. (i.e., if the Fedora Trademarks appear in a site-wide header, the informational text must appear in that header or an identically site-wide footer.); and

the site does not use the Fedora Project’s trade dress (i.e. the look and feel of the Fedora Project).

While these online community sites and accounts are not officially endorsed by the Fedora Project or Red Hat, because they are part of the Fedora Community (and use the Fedora trademarks to identify themselves), their site owners, moderators, administrators, and users are required to comply with the Fedora Code of Conduct. Community sites and accounts which are unable to meet this standard of conduct will be required to cease use of the Fedora Trademarks.

这里只要遵循一些规定就可以了。
看来我可以直接开干了。我计划使用的域名是 www.fedora-cn.com 。当然，我不保证我真的会实施。

我阅读了资料，发现域名中包含 "Fedora" 需要对官方进行申请。这是我准备的邮件：

Dear Fedora Council,
I am a Fedora user from China. Recently I noticed that there isn't a Chinese Mandarin community for Fedora, I registered the domain fedora-cn.com and I am plan to set up a non-commercial community forum for Chinese Mandarin speaking Fedora users. The forum is intended to help newcomers, share technical discussions, and advocate Fedora!The site will include the required disclaimer: "This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Fedora Project."
I read the docs and stuff and then I knew that I should request permission use the "Fedora" trademark in the domain name fedora-cn.com. So now I am writing to request permission. Also, I will use the Fedora LOGO, and I wish to know if that is okay. I am willing to comply with all Fedora trademark guidelines.
If using fedora-cn.com is not permitted, I can use the subdomain fedoracommunity.org instead.
Thanks! Looking forward to your reply!
Sincerely,
Linus Lee,

遭到退信了，看来不能发邮件。
我发现一些对我来说的好消息：

跟 Red Hat 官方发了一封申请邮件，说明了情况。不过大概率是石沉大海了。
