Revision as of 03:42, 14 September 2009
This is a free form page to work on slogan ideas. Please add ideas to the table below. As we solidify the ideas and work towards the slogan, the page which change to reflect that.
Ground rules
- The slogan should be short.
- The slogan should be an active sentence, like a command.
- F8: Go higher.
- F9: Make waves.
- F10: Fire it up.
- F11: Reign now
- The slogan should be positive, and reflect the idea that Fedora helps the user achieve something great.
- The slogan should reflect one or more of the themes from the #Artwork created by the Artwork team for this release. It's more important to fit the artwork theme than the four foundations shown in the #Keywords section below.

New slogan ideas
Slogan | Submitter | Notes |
---|---|---|
"share and rule" | Fine | 'divide and rule' with the idiology of sharing which characerize free and open source software! |
"order the chaos" | duffy | constantine brought order to chaos; the mosaic patterns are orderly; computers are generally chaotic and Fedora can help you make sense of it |
"Shine" | lcafiero | F11's slogan was "reign," so what's more fitting after a reign than to shine? |
"The Verdict is out!" | gsreekantan | 12 members in a jury, so .... |
"Welcome to life" | tatica | When is a new opportunity, is always a new start |
"Always persevering" | tatica | Is one of the meanings of "constantine" (the constant) |
"Whoa." | mdehaan | Mandatory Keanu Reeves reference. (skipping the unneccessary and limiting "must be a command" rule, though technically it is a command if you are a horse, but not in the Keanu sense) |
"Grok." | Mel Chua | Mandatory Heinlein reference (along the "bring order (understanding) to chaos" theme, though this is probably not enough of a mainstream reference to really work). |
"Synthesize." | Mel Chua | Also attempting to go with the "understanding chaos" theme. |
something-related-to-stepping-stones - what do you call the thing (not stepping) that you do on stepping stones? | Mel Chua | The rawhide wallpaper reminds me of stepping stones set through a river - a stable route where you can stand to walk to your destination in the midst of a turbulent stream, without losing any of the surprise and beauty of that stream. I'm quite taken by Mo's "bringing order to chaos" imagery and am trying to find alternative ways to phrase that. |
