- that font is used for galaxia graphing. 
http://www.abstractfonts.com/designer/279/bree%20gorton is the author.

The readme included in the zip says : 
"This font was made by The Font Farm, it's free to use."

That's quite a short licence, but I'm not sure it breaks possible use
in a LGPL context. If you feel there is a doubt I'll contact author
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and ask for permission.

- tikiwiki developers made a lot of efforts to enforce LGPL compatibility 
of all code included in first versions of Tikiwiki. There should be no hole 
left, and if there is, that's considered as a bug, and if reported it will 
be fixed instantly.

- we already removed avatars that were stolen boldly from various
sources. If Chealer (philippe cloutier or filupus klutiero) talks about 
icons contained in img/icons/, well, there are a bunch of them and 
I have no idea how to track them all. For example, who can say who 
is the copyright holder for img/icons/clear.gif and what are its
conditions of use ?


cheers,
