[Libreoffice-ux-advise] Symphony Clip Art
Hi, Lotus Symphony has replaced the Gallery Clip Art with some really nice and modern Images. You can get them as ZIP from here [1]. As Symphony is available under the Apache License [2] , I suggest to include these Clip Art Icons in LibreOffice. Here's a comparison: LibreOffice Clip Art Symphony Clip Art Images # 270 520 Average Size/Image 2,1kB 37,5kB Total Size 568,8kB 19,5MB Format gif png As you see, that would increase the size by ~19MB. Some of the Symphony Images are very large, the size could be reduced a bit by resizing those. Best would be of course, if we can get the SVG files, but I have not seen them anywhere. What do you think about this?

Symphony is NOT available under Apache license. instead of the standard ALv2 license header one expects from an ASF project, many of the files have headers that read: > * Licensed Materials - Property of IBM. > * (C) Copyright IBM Corporation 2003, 2011. All Rights Reserved. therefore i would recommend not looking at Symphony code and/or image at this time until such a time as the copyright holder clears up this unhelpful situation. regards, michael ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise

Hi Samuel, I don't know, whether it is legal to use the AOO trunk. But if you wait till AOO 4.0 is released, you will get them without license problems. And more important, Armin has changed a lot of them to svg, so you will get a high quality with small size. So no, do not use the Symphony gallery directly.

Re: [Libreoffice-ux-advise] Symphony Clip Art
I just asked on the DEV list whether it is possible for LibreOffice to include the Symphony code. And more important, Armin has changed a lot of them to svg, so you will get a high quality with small size. So no, do not use the Symphony gallery directly. That's really nice - thanks for the hint. Hopefully all get converted. For now I'll leave it, until the license situation is clear.
