Sure but we would like to avoid to have more license. I would prefer a CreativeCommons license because it is simple to understand and is not related to code. Stef On Dec 11, 2011, at 4:45 PM, Ben Coman wrote:
The EPL does not seem the same show stopper as the GPL since the Eclipse License and FAQ indicate it is not viral like the GPL. There is no requirement that an EPL licensed program combined with a non-EPL licensed program requires the combination to be licensed under the EPL as a whole. In fact it is designed to allow distribution of closed source commercial applications based on it while keeping the common base open source.
FAQ#17 actually says: "When incorporating a portion of a Program licensed under the EPL into my own proprietary product distributed in object code form, can I use a single license for the full product, in other words, covering the portion of the Program plus my own code? Answer: Yes. The object code for the product may be distributed under a single license as long as it references the EPL portion and complies, for that portion, with the terms of the EPL."
Complying with the terms effectively be satisfied by: 1. "sources" be available "just for the icons" 2. Disclaiming warranty and liability - which the MIT already does 3. Assumedly no patent issues arising from inclusion of icons.

I'm not sure that I would like to carry the Eclipse License around in Pharo :)

Hi,
Today I was bored and not wanting to think too much... but I wanted to do something for Pharo... and I never liked the current Pharo icons, so I took one icon library I really like and changed all needed icons (well... all that I saw). Here a couple of screen shots:
<Captura de pantalla 2011-12-10 a la(s) 23.05.55.png> <Captura de pantalla 2011-12-10 a la(s) 23.06.20.png>
Of course, I don't think they are perfect (also maybe I didn't pick the best icons), but I think they look a lot better than the older.
If you want to see how they look, this are the packages:
for Pharo 1.3:
<Eclipse-Icons-EstebanLorenzano.2.mcz>
for Pharo 1.4:
<Eclipse-Icons-EstebanLorenzano.4.mcz>
Then you execute:
ThemeIcons initializeIcons. World resetWorldMenu.
... and enjoy your new icons :)
btw... this icons are in an open-source license, the EPL: http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html
so, maybe âif all agreeâ, we can add this icons to regular distribution :)
best, Esteban
