Re: The Debian logo, again



** Important observation! **
The Debian logo license will *expire* on June 30, 1998. That's 3 days from
now, 2 in some timezones. :) Let's get that fixed before then.

What about products like Boot CD's then? Where they give you a good 300MB of
stuff (300/650 < 0.5) but definately not the official set? (I also think
such percentages will not improve with the arrival of DVD either.)
I think that they should be able to put the Debian logo on such a product.

My personal opinion is #2 should be changed to:

 2. In the case of a software product, it must contain an installable
    version of the standard Debian GNU/Linux distribution.

'Standard' meaning it includes all 'standard' and higher priority packages.
(Maybe this could be worded more clearly?)
