Although Debian can be obtained for free and will always remain that way, events such as the problem with the ownership of the term “Linux” have shown that Debian needs to protect its property from any use which could hurt its reputation.
Debian has decided to create two logos: one logo is for official Debian use; the other logo falls under an open use type license.
