In some cases. You don't want to order a Fedora Core CD and find its not
Fedora for example. In the case of people mastering and releasing authentic
Fedora images (and possibly other stuff bundled with it) the intention is that 
you'll be allowed to call it "Fedora". So hopefully lots of people will be
selling Fedora CD's
