I think we'd have to ask the art team :)

Yeah, that was more of a plae holder...for one, it's not the correct
font, and two, the clash with the logo below. One thing I'd considered
was just putting the graphical part of the logo there, like we have in
Gnome. 

One point to note, in the spins mockups where the logo is now is
actually replaced by "Fedora" with "Spins" written underneath it. This
is something I think would work well, i.e. "Fedora News" "Fedora Spins"
"Fedora Downloads" etc etc could all be placed like this. In this case
the clash wouldn't be as significant...

Yep, I'm happy for that :)

I'd also like to change "get involved" to "be involved"...

Best wishes,
