<div dir="ltr"><div>Yes it is legal for KDE to use KDE's logo in any way we want to. We want to support KDE contributors and users who are LGBTQI+. If it blocks people from funding KDE then we do not want their money. That you have to ask shows we still have a long way to go in showing support for an important issue which affects many people.</div><div><br></div><div>Jonathan</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, 12 Jul 2020 at 11:14, sabayon11 <<a href="mailto:sabayon11@gmail.com">sabayon11@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">I have a question:<br>
Is it legal for reddit moderators of r_KDE to use KDE logo in LGBT<br>
colors. Is it consistent with logo license?<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/</a><br>
<br>
Is it in line with KDE code of conduct - to support certain groups<br>
that are politically active and be selective in this choice? For<br>
example: why they don't support women rights in middle-east region?<br>
Who have the right to decide?<br>
<br>
Do you realize that it can stop certain people from funding KDE? Of<br>
course on the other hand it can make others, like George Soros to fund<br>
but does KDE really want to go in that direction and engage in such<br>
politics. Pretending that it has nothing to do with politics is a pure<br>
lie.<br>
<br>
What other KDE contributors think about it? For example: do all KDE<br>
funders support engaging software community in non-software activity?<br>
<br>
I know that reddit is separate website and has nothing to do with this<br>
forum, however this is social and community issue as well.<br>
<br>
What about adding to KDE code of conduct: KDE is not engage in social<br>
or political dispute. KDE doesn't discriminate nor support any groups<br>
other than Free Software.<br>
<br>
Personally I believe there are thousands of other better places on the<br>
Internet to express whatever point of view someone has and KDE and its<br>
community should not be involved in such activities.<br>
<br>
It is now off. But this doesn't change the meaning of this action.<br>
My first message about it to this list was on 3rd of July but has not<br>
been accepted by moderators yet, so I had to subscribe.<br>
