As I said, if you unknowingly infringe on trademark etc, you have to be 
given the opportunity to put it right.  So rather than clutter all the 
pages with Red Hat, I moved the reference out of the std footer and 
simply put a link to a new trademark page from the front page (Legal 
Statement). This is just a simple page listing trademarks as well as the 
"coverall" statement to catch any remainders.

Source is in place so you can add/edit/make pretty as appropriate.
