Hello
I am designing the cover page for my book Phoenix Inside Out. Can I use the Phoenix framework logo on the cover? What information should I provide to avoid copyright issue?
Thanks

I wasn’t able to find a license for the logo, but since @chrismccord is listed as the owner of the copyright for phoenix’ sourcecode, I think we should ask him for further clarification?
But in general, when you have questions about using some logo or text from a web page or a project you should ask the projects/websites maintainer by mail instead of people in an unrelated forum.
Norbert is correct in saying you’d need to contact the copyright holder.
Generally speaking, the answer is usually no unless it is an official product (/one by the copyright holder), so in your case you will most likely need to come up with your own book design.
Same applies to all other products too - such as websites, mailers, apps etc.
Fair use applies to things like reviews/news coverage/inclusion in some videos/talks (but not as or part of actual logo) etc.
Yes, I have written to @chrismccord. The reason I asked here is because it might be also a resource for other having the same question.
