Hello,
I would like to use some icons from the GNOME desktop environment in a
printed brochure that has nothing to do with computers, just because
they are very handy.
1. Can I use them under a Creative Commons Attribution - Share Alike
License ?
2. Where can I find the names of the authors of these icons ?
If anybody can answer to these questions, I would be very grateful.
According to the COPYING file [1], the icons are released under
the GNU GPL. I have absolutely no idea what effect that has on
inclusion in printed brochures. My guess is that nobody will
have a problem with it, provided you don't use the trademarked
Gnome logo.
The AUTHORS file [2] lists the people responsible for the Gnome
icons. You can always browse through the SVN repository to see
who created which icon.
