Why? We need to keep some control over the use of our trademarks to ensure that they are a sign of quality.

Without a trademark license, you may not use Solaris or OpenSolaris in the name of your distribution, or any product, service or company name.

However, we do recognize that some of you will want to label your products to communicate that they are derived from OpenSolaris technology, and are looking into making that possible. Stay tuned.

We've also been asked to create some OpenSolaris fan buttons as well. Great idea. We are investigating.
