Martin Pitt (pitti) wrote : Copyright and License for Dust theme

Hello Kido,

as discussed in https://launchpad.net/bugs/335888, we'd like to
include the Dust and Dust Sand themes in the Ubuntu default
installation. Many thanks for creating those!

However, in order for us to be able to do this, the sources
(lp:dusttheme) need to have a copyright and license declaration.

The Launchpad project page says that this is intended to be GPL. Thus
can you please copy /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-3 into your
branch as file "COPYING"? If you want to use a different license, such
as CC-BY-SA 2.5, please do that, of course. But it needs to have a
full copy of the license.

For the copyright, you should add something like this to e. g. README:

  Copyright (C) 2009 Ricardo Mariano II
  Author: Ricardo Mariano II <email address hidden>
  License: GPL v3, see file "COPYING".

Committing those to bzr is enough, since I pull from that to package
gnome-themes-ubuntu.

Thank you!

Martin
