We don't communicate it at all. We just take the term and swing it
around like a 9-iron, and dare someone to take it away from us. And when
they do try, we have an aggressive communications plan that says "Fedora:
Remixing since 2006. Booyah."
Oh, and also, we put "Fedora Remix" in the boot sequence of every OLPC
system on earth. Scoreboard.
