Bernie, SLOBs, <br>
<br>
another issue on the table someone else mentioned is about Sugar /
Sugar Labs proactively develop some such a program for encouraging
Sugar-ed doings. Probably y'all know how important is any sort of
paper or "official" (letterhead, signatures, seals, the more the
better) recognition over there. I know that is not the way of the
FLOSS, but since we have to live this split reality, we might as
well do it.<br>
<br>
I'm not in the SLOB list so maybe someone reroute if you think this
makes sense.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
on a lighter note:<br>
Even the Cub Scouts in the US now have some sort of badge for
computer/gaming stuff...<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
Do we know anything about this?
If we don't this is probably clearly a trademark violation.
Not saying its a bad idea, but sugar labs should lead any sugar
certification that is offered and called that way. In fact we should
encourage this kind of appropriation but in a way that gives back to
the project. For instance, if they have developed guidelines,
materials, etc, they can be a reference for similar programs in other
countries that other Local Labs could offer, adding to our Services
Portfolio.

I would suggest getting in contact with them and ask *politely* for more
details about this certification program.
Then, depending on their answer, we could ask them *politely* to change
the program name or offer them a license to use the Sugar Labs marks.
Since you speak Spanish, you are *polite* and you're a slob (no offense
implied :-), you could contact them as an official representative of
Sugar Labs.
Did I mention that we should be *polite*? :-)
