Trademarks

The code is MIT (LICENSE); the name is not. "Fizzy" and the Fizzy logo are trademarks of Colton Franklin. This policy exists so that a person who downloads something called Fizzy gets Fizzy, and it is meant to stay out of the way of everyone building on it.

Fine without asking

  • Saying what your work is for: "a plugin for Fizzy", "built with Fizzy", "Fizzy theme pack".
  • Redistributing an unmodified Fizzy build under its own name and logo.
  • Packaging Fizzy for an operating system or package manager, with only the changes needed to build and install it there.
  • Writing, teaching, streaming and talking about Fizzy, logo included.
  • Naming a plugin fizzy-<thing> or <thing>-for-fizzy.

Ask first

  • Calling a modified build "Fizzy", or shipping it with the Fizzy logo or icon.
  • A product, company or domain name that contains "Fizzy" or could be mistaken for it.
  • Using the logo in a way that suggests the project endorses or sponsors you.

A fork is welcome; give it a name and icon of its own and say it is based on Fizzy.

Asking

Open an issue on fizzyedit/fizzy. Reasonable requests get a yes.
