KDE trademark usage

Thu Mar 03, 2011 6:32 pm
Are there somewhere the rules of how the KDE trademarks can be used by the distributions and third-party KDE-compatible software?

Not sure if i get it right. A trademark is what it is and should be reused like it. What you maybe mean is the license, which tells about the further usage. In the case of KDE software/artwork they are open source licenses.
There you can do with it what you want, you can change it, sell it, redistribute it, whatever, depends on the license. But what ALWAYS should remain is the trademark.

I can't find one. You are probably better off asking on one of the mailing lists or on IRC.

In this case, the correct people to contact are the members of the KDE e.V Board, who will be able to give you the needed answer to your question. kde-ev-board@kde.org
