This looks pretty neat.  I have a couple of ideas for refinement:

1) Add end caps to the ring while it's being drawn (so the "head" is
rounded, tapered, or feathered)
2) experiment with Transition=merge-fade and see how it looks

Be careful here.

The Fedora logo has a lot of rules around distribution since it's a
trademark.  See
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo .  For instance, all fedora logos
shipped in Fedora, have
to be put in the fedora-logos package.
