Sounds dorky, but if he's doing it because he likes KDE more than Fedora it makes sense. It's not strong branding for us, because it doesn't look like it has our blessing. So maybe "KDE LiveCD, powered by Fedora." might be better if we're actually blessing it. <blockquote type="cite"> b.

If you get it from somewhere else it's based on/powered by.
