See related ticket #100

Dutch team left string untranslated as well

Workaround: Remove spaces between words. This caused whole text to be shown below Fedora logo. See Bulgarian (Български език) version.

Sorry to have missed that.
We should not let the four foundations being translatable when it is part of the logo.

Copiing here an email with logo@fpo:

shaiton asked in #fedora-design today if it was okay to translate the
four foundations logos.

since they are considered fedora trademarks im not sure if this is okay,
is it?
Adding Pam Chestek to CC to double check, but I seem to remember
discussing this with her once and she advised not translating them.

Correct, we shouldn't translate the words when the words are part of the
logo. You are certainly translate the words and explain the concepts in
a text explanation.

Therefor, I am +1 to remove this string from the POT (only on the header, it could be translated when it's in the text.

fixed in prod. Translation removed from that string.
