Re: GPLv3/L8R -- taking care of the graphics

Hi, Looking deeper into the png files. I wrote earlier: If we follow that it gets like this for the png files: For png you can set a property. We could use that for setting the properties "copyright" and "license". Displaying these properties using the identify program (ImageMagick package) looks like this (This is part of a 350 lines output from identify using the -verbose option) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ...

The name of the copyright holder is the person on the picture (a fake example this time). The later might not be true for all pictures in which case further analysis is required or we just drop the picture!? Is this how to do this for the png pictures? One alternative IMHO is to drop all the png pictures from the etc/photos folder. If we really like them they can be put to display on the web-page instead. I might be wrong but I don't think it is customary to include pictures of the contributors within the source.
