I'm not sure this qualifies for speedy deletion. At source, it's marked as fair use because "the original program is copyrighted", but the original program is GPL'd, so the icon might be in GFDL. I'm waiting for confirmation from the author of the icon. Thomas Deniau 05:42, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, that logic doesn't make sense. If a program were GPL'd, the icon wouldn't be GFDL.. They are two seperate licenses. Secondly, the logo is often exempt from the licensing scheme of the rest of the program, along with other included graphics. It can only be presumed fair use. //Ae:æ 13:56, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've just contacted the author of the icon (Timothy Hatcher) and the icon is GPL'd too, as the rest of the code. Removing copyvio. Thomas Deniau 15:13, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
