Hello Felicity,

Thank you for contacting the webmasters and the board of KDE e.V. concerning 
your copyright permission request. I will be dealing with your questions; if 
you have additional questions, please address them directly to me.

Thank you. We can grant you permission to reproduce that image. If you like, 
here it is explicitly:

Yes, you are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license 
to reproduce the image identified in the sample in the stated print work and 
any future edition of that work.

I do have an issue with it though: Kivio is not a UML program and the diagram 
being shown is not a UML diagram, so the content of the book isn't quite 
right, even if your copyright situation is. 

For accuracy's sake, we might send you a better screenshot under the same 
conditions as listed above.

The author in this case is Chris Howells, the publisher is KDE e.V.
