What does the term "Fedora Remix" mean?
The term [[:fedora:Remix|Fedora Remix]] has a special meaning within the Fedora Project: it denotes a custom distribution of packages from the Fedora Project, optionally including packages which cannot be included in the main Fedora distribution because of licensing or other issues. Pidora does not contain proprietary software that is not allowed in Fedora([[:fedora:Licensing:Main#Binary_Firmware|Binary Firmware]]), however it will still remain a Fedora Remix.
Pidora 18 (Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix) accesses all software packages from repositories created and managed in CDOT. These packages are all armv6, so they are not hosted by the Fedora ARM Project. Pidora 18 (Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix) images are all created from these repositories using our kickstart: [[Pidora_kickstart|Pidora 18 Kickstart]] These repositories are also used during yum interaction(update/installation/removal).
A Fedora Remix may use the [[:fedora:Legal:Trademark_guidelines#Secondary_Mark|Secondary Mark]], a trademark for identifying remixes. We have obtained permission to modify the colour of the lozenge in the Secondary Mark to match the maroon colour in the Raspberry Pi logo.
