Hello everyone, First, let me congratulate everyone for their amazing work on gaim. We (th= e OpenWengo community) decided to use gaim as our main library to connect to IM networks, and we are wondering about the license of icons that can be found here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gaim/gaim/pixmaps/status/default/ . Can we use them in our projects? If so, is there any restriction? Also, we added a mention to the gaim project to our "Friends projects" page here: http://www.openwengo.org/index.php/openwengo/public/homePage/openwengo/publ= ic/friends_project. Are you ok with this? Would you like to modify the information that we wrote there? Thank you very much for your attention. Best regards, -- Julien Gilli |

I know the Bonjour icon is a trademark of Apple, and they restrict the places where it may be used [1]. Other major networks may have similar rules and trademarks. Your description of Gaim looks good to me. -Mark [1] http://developer.apple.com/softwarelicensing/agreements/bonjour.html |
