Permission to use AOO menu icons in my Proofing Tool GUI
Hello!
Can someone give me permission to use the following menu icons in my tool:
- Open
- Save
- Save As
- Quit
- About
Please notice that there is no "About" icon in AOO. Maybe someone could
do one based on: http://i.imgur.com/WEoNo4m.png
If permission is granted, who shall I credit in the user guide of my
tool, and where can I download the icons from?
Thanks!
Kind regards,
>Marco A.G.Pinto

and besides that ASF have the right to all parts of AOO as stored in svn,
this is all published under the ALv2 license
http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0. Since the icons are binary you
are doing a redistribution, so look at 4).
Redistribution is quite simple, when you work is licensed with ALv2, just
as we do.
FYI, here is a typical header:

May I politely say that the qa ml is not the right list for such
discussions, you should sent it to dev@ (and subscribe).
Hope this helps.

I think this should go to trademark email, however these icons are from
someone else who work at sun, she did the 'tango' iconset by stella
