I tried the new icons in win2k but they barely show up. They are set to
32bit colour but I think the win2k tray can only handle 8bit. Is it possible
to get them changed to 8bit colour depth.
Thanks.
Lio.

Hi Andreas,
It's me again. We have now added new icons for aMSN, and removed those
illegal ones from the latest SVN version.
I do understand you don't want those icons to be in your debian package so
don't worry, you don't need them, those are .ico
icons and are the icons used in the taskbar of Windows only! Since Debian is
for Linux and not Windows, this means that this
does not affect you at all. You can use the 0.96 release source file, and
delete the winicons/ directory before creating your
debian package, this should not affect you in any way.
if you still need anything, don't hesitate to write to me.
Thank you for your help.

Hey,
Sorry, didn't see Alvaro already responded to your message, this only
confirms (partially) what I first said.
About the .ico files, they can't be from the official client, the quality
of the icons is too bad to be coming from a
Microsoft product :-p
Seriously though, i'm also concerned about those images, so I'm comparing
these images to the ones in Windows live messenger
and they are not the same, but I do think they are the same as the windows
messenger.
I just downloaded and installed a resource viewer and it looks like the
icons from windows messenger are the same as the ones
we use with aMSN, although in windows messenger, they are stored as pngs,
not icons. So I don't know if it's just a
coincidence, or if they were done based on windows messenger icons or if
they were copied.
Anyways, since there is a doubt, I suggest we change those icons. We will
change those icons for the 0.96 release, which is
already out but not yet officially announced.
I propose Gus's icons from the Emerald skin. I'll take care of contacting
him and ask him, then we'll have to move fast in
order to repackage everything.
Thanks Andreas for letting us know about this.
I'll keep you posted.

Hi, I'm sure display pics are not from MSN Messenger. They are the
same concept, but someone (I can't remember who) made them. There's a
rubber duck in MSN Messenger, but not the same pic as in AMSN. Same
for other pics.
About the sounds, they were record by Luis Carlos Gallego, a guitar
player friend of mine, so they are NOT from M$ at all.
I'm in doubt about the .ico files... Not sure where they come from. We
should check and replace inmediately if they are from the original
messenger (maybe use the ones from the .png files).

Subject: Re: Bug#397835: Perhaps a doubt
Hi,
it seems that we need your help - there is a bug report questioning
where these files come from, and it couldn't be clarified up to now.
The full bug report is available at http://bugs.debian.org/397853
Any feedback from your side is welcome.
For Debian, being sure about legal issues is a major topic, and if we
cannot settle this quite soon, we will unfortunatly be forced to
remove
this package from the next stable version, Etch, something I wouldn't
like to see happen.
Cheers,
Andi
