[jira] Created: (FOR-1090) ODT Plugin needs an Icon

ODT Plugin needs an Icon
------------------------

                 Key: FOR-1090
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-1090
             Project: Forrest
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Plugin: Output.OOo
            Reporter: Gavin
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: odt_icon.png

The odt output format for OOo plugin needs an Icon to use on output html pages.
It is intended to add an image and link similar to the PDF icon used currently.

I can find any proper odt image icon on the OpenOffice site.
I will attach an image I found that fits the job, but want to know if it is suitable and what the license issues might be.
Will continue to look for an official one though.

As with everything at ASF, you the developer who wants it
to happen, should jump in and do the work to be sure that
it is okay. You cannot rely on the rest of us explaining
or doing it for you.

I saw your earlier minimal comment, but i was waiting for
you to provide the missing information.

This is the first that we have heard of that.

I don't understand that.

Yes, it is often easier to make one's own images.

In the past someone offered in our mail archives
to create an "icons set" for Forrest. Don't know
what happened.

I have often wondered about Forrest doing this itself.
A small SVG source file would automatically generate
a PNG format icon. i.e small rectangular icon with
just the letters "PDF", or "POD", or "ODT", etc.
See the example that creates the "MyGroup" or "MyTitle"
banner images in a "forrest seed-sample" site.

You should Cc private@ forrest. This enables the rest of
us to keep an eye on what is happening.

Apologies, I waited over a month and got no comments from this list, from
OpenOffice.org, openoffice marketing, sun, or anyone.

<snip stuff that didn't make the 10 second rule>

so anyway, I'll just my own in the meantime.

I have emailed their marketing dept, so we'll see what happens.

Most of their stuff is LGPL, which we cant use (but mainly refers to code
and redistribution and/or contribution of), but some stuff like logos and
other artwork fall into a PDL (Public Documentation License), I'll have to
look into that and perhaps liaise with legal as that is currently not
mentioned on the page you referred to earlier.

Thanks

Using some organisations icons and trademarks required specific
approval. For example see what we, the ASF, require:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/licence-FAQ.html#Marks

Even if we did get approval, it might not mean that we can
pass it on to downstream packagers and distributors of
or Apache Forrest products.

Wait on, -1

You need to tell us where you found this icon and you need
to be sure of its license.

Just because they did not answer your email, that does
not mean that we can use it.

If it is one of the licenses listed on
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html
then you can use it. Otherwise make a case to the
"legal-discuss@" list, explaining exactly what you
want to do. Search that list first.

See ...
http://about.openoffice.org/index.html#licenses

I have not reviewed that document.
