Distributions page, Mac OS X
Hi
Could somebody with access to the website of subversion change the text
on
<http://subversion.tigris.org/project_packages.html>
for the Mac OS X fink package to include the following (or similar)
text:
"The svn Fink package is still in the unstable tree. To enable it
please read the Fink FAQ."
Where 'FAQ' is a link to:
<http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-fink.php#unstable>
? That would be great.
Also, the Mac OS X logo seems to have a low quality. Maybe somebody
could exchange it with something similar to
<http://www.apple.com.pl/produkty/x.gif>
Thanks,
Chris.

Okay, thanks. Until we have confirmation from them that it's okay,
I'll leave the logo down.

Logos? Lawyers? Pointless trademark licenses? Why, this sounds like a
job for a Product Manager!
I'd be surprised if we have to execute that agreement just to put a logo
on the web page. Apple has an email address for logo questions. I've
sent them a message; let's see what they have to say.
Best,

... which boils down to "someone has to sign the license agreement
available there (good for one year)."
One of the reasons the license is only good for a year, apparently,
is that they keep changing the image you're allowed to use. The
current one doesn't provide any graphical distinction (only
recommended text) between things for OS X and things for earlier

Apple's policy includes using a different image, so we might be
lawyer-bait already. The rules are at:
http://developer.apple.com/mkt/maclogo.html
... which boils down to "someone has to sign the license agreement

Done, thanks!

I don't know what Apple's policy is on copying this image. Apple is
much bigger than I am and can afford more lawyers, so I'd rather not
risk it without explicit permission :-).
