Could someone please explain why patching this bug isn't an option? i.e. swap out the troublesome icons and replace them with versions that explicitly allow unrestricted reuse. Hardly a radical fork. Ok, someone with time and design skills will be needed, and it'd probably reopen #68180 for a bit, but that seems fairly trivial in comparison.
Naturally IANAL, but if a product is 99.9% open source, and the remaining 0.1% serves to identify the product proper, then to me it seems fair use to include that branding wherever the rest of the product is packaged as a whole. But even if fair use might apply, inclusion of the images in Gobuntu stills seems inappropriate - there's nothing that counters the substantive point in Mark's <a href="http://diveintomark.org/archives/2007/10/18/gobuntu-has-already- failed">Gobuntu Sucks</a> post. -- Some components are non-free https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83118 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
