lbruun commented on issue #289: [NETBEANS-126] Replace with trademark free icons
URL:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/289#issuecomment-346610061
@Chris2011. How would these icons that you propose be any better (from an
AFS legal point of view) than the icons that were in NetBeans 8.2? , the ones
that Oracle removed from the donation. Those icons were also "free". Again: The
problem is _not_ the license of the art-work.
The problem is that we cannot use a trademarked logo (in whatever form)
until we get an ok in
[LEGAL-343](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-343). Until then we
have to use something which for sure is acceptable meaning until then we err on
the side of caution, legally.

> A number of browser icons were "removed" from the donation, in [this
> changeset|http://hg.netbeans.org/releases/rev/034a0c65c347?revcount=1500].
> They weren't actually removed, rather they were all replaced with a dummy
> NetBeans icon. I think Oracle removed them because Oracle couldn't donate
> such icons, as they don't "own" these trademarks.
> h2. Module path "css.editor"
> Removed from {{css.editor}}:
> !css-editor-icons.png!
> The browser icons in this module are - as far as I can tell - only used for
> code completion hints on CSS where they are used to signal if the browser has
> support for the CSS property or not. Example:
> !css-editor-icons-usage.png!
> h2. Module path "web.browser.api"
> Removed from {{web.browser.api}}:
> !web-browser-api-icons.png!
> The above icons are all replaced in the donation with a dummy NetBeans icon:
> !nb-icon.png!
> I'll do a PR to re-instate these.
