Hi Jakob,


I appreciate your courage to work through all these boring and annoying license stuff ...!

The practice I used when writing license notes for XmasDecorations was the following: I added a special pragma to each resource-defining method. Example:
<xmasResourceBy: 'Larisa K' from: #Pixabay>
Then all credits can be collected by something like this:
Pragma allNamed: #xmasResourceBy:from: in: XmasResources.
I propose to apply the same pattern for Trunk resources. It allows us to define license information side-by-side to the resource and minimizes the risk of dangling credits in any distant help article.
We could even write a test to assert that each trunk method that defines a resources has a pragma:
patterns := #('*Form*from*' '*Sound*').
packages := PackageInfo allInstances.
resourceMethods := packages gather: [:package |
(package methods take: 10000) select: [:m |
(m compiledMethod literals anySatisfy: [:lit |
lit isCollection
and: [lit size > 128]
and: [lit isString ==> [(lit includes: $ ) not]]])
and: [patterns anySatisfy: [:pattern |
pattern match: m sourceString]]]].
resourceMethods do: [:method |
self assert: [method hasPragma: ...].
And, of course, we could provide a set of overloaded pragma selector for different license formats.

Best,
Christoph

Hi all,

After stumbling around a bit on the icon8.com<http://icon8.com> web site, it looks like we will be fine to use their icons freely, in any form obtained from their web site. We just are not allowed to edit them except for the most basic operations.

Hello, Congratulations for your illustrations which are very beautiful and well done! My question concerns the recolouring of one of your icons for a personal website. If I recolor one of your icons and put it on my si…

Open Source Projects Get Icons Free<https://icons8.com/articles/we-contributed-icon-to-imageoptim/>
icons8.com
Icons for popular open source projects are free. By "popular" we meant the projects that have a community of users and contributors. Tell us about your project.


It might be nice to tell them that we use some of their icons: http://disq.us/p/1p1l0dn

However, not all content in Squeak is actually under the proclaimed MIT license. This does not only apply to these icons, but also to the already included fonts.
https://www.fontsquirrel.com/license/Bitstream-Vera-Sans
License for font family 'Bitstream Vera Sans' | Font Squirrel<https://www.fontsquirrel.com/license/Bitstream-Vera-Sans>

We have to reproduce their copyright notice.

Should Squeak's license statement therefore not include a list of the included parts and their licenses? Currently it only lists the MIT license and the Apache License under Help > License Information and on the website: https://squeak.org/license/
Squeak/Smalltalk | License<https://squeak.org/license/>
squeak.org
Squeak is a modern, open source, full-featured implementation of the powerful Smalltalk programming language and environment.



It would be more appropriate to include the attribution notice in a more visible place than the methods with the bytes in them. Most users will not look there. Somewhere in the About window, or a small notice on the welcome screen would be more suitable.

If you agree that this should be done, I suggest to do it rather before the release than after. Maybe not looking through the complete image, but at least catalogue the known parts: icons and fonts.

Kind regards,
Jakob

Their german version (which also lists the icons) mentions the license: https://icons8.de/license ^^

Here are further terms, but no mention of the Creative Commons license.

https://icons8.com/license

These don't look like the usual legalese. Maybe the site has some official terms buried somewhere.

Good question ...

  1.  See #checkmark (added by Marcel), it uses the same license and cite.
  2.  The original picture is from here: https://img.icons8.com/metro/26/000000/settings.png (Unfortunately, you cannot link to the containing page directly). But if you search for any icon on the page, you will be offered to "edit it in lunancy", probably to change the color. So don't they want this?
  3.  There is no author specified, so I assume the "author" is "icons8".

<http://www.hpi.de/>

However, if there is someone able to design a better icon, he or she is welcome to do so :-)

Does this not violate the license of the icon? It says attribution and no derivatives, yet I see no name of the creator and the comment states "modified".
