 I originally took the icons from screenshots of the OmniGroup's
 OmniWeb: a NeXTSTEP web browser.  I reduced the icons in size, put
 them over transparent backgrounds, converted them to xpm format, and
 placed them into the XEmacs toolbar.  As to the issue of distributing
 the icons, I have no problem with it as long as they are distributed
 under the GPL as you have indicated. 
Yes.  We (the XEmacs developers) cannot and will not change the
copyright and if the icons are GPL'ed we can distribute them.

...
 The only issue is the rights of the OmniGroup.  But since I put this
 package together, I believe OmniWeb has gone opensource.  So, the
 long and the short of it is that I have no problem with it, but the
 OmniGroup might. 
This is a problem.  We need permission from them it would seem.
