I guess it is quite final. I just made the little change I wrote about in the e-mail of 31/8: "" The standard notices contain: "either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version." The guy said: say, the FSF goes broke, the remains are bought by microsoft, how will the next version of the LGPL look like? It's a bit academic, I guess this scenario is over my dead body for RMS, still, the save way is the drop "either ... or (at your option) any later version".

We expressly want the LGPL to be valid for this artwork library too. KDE vector icons is a special kind of software library, it is an artwork library, it's elements can be used in a Graphical User Interface, or GUI. Source code, for this library means: - for vectors svg; - for pixels, if applicable, the multi-layered formats xcf or psd, or otherwise png. The LGPL in some sections obliges you to make the files carry notices. With images this is in some cases impossible or hardly usefull. In this library, the vector elements carry short notices, the pixel elements do not; a longer notice is placed at a prominent place in the directory containing the elements. You may follow this practice. The exception in section 6 of the GNU Lesser General Public License covers the use of elements of this art library in a GUI. kde-artists@kde.org --------------Boundary-00=_A05PMY17HE650BOWVOCJ-- _______________________________________________ kde-artists mailing list kde-artists@mail.kde.org http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-artists
