I have no idea of the legal status of the photo, I believe the length of
time for copyright in the USA is 75 years (unless your Disney, then it
is for ever), thus it still may be covered on this side of the pond. I
think we need to clarify this before printing up a bunch of shirts with
this photo.
Edward - who doubts anyone will be chasing after code4lib but still, we
should do things "the right way"

The photo is an original WWII photo from 1944, it's outside of the 50
years covered by copyright here in the UK in is in use by several
different organisations. I believe we don't need any clearance.

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Polls open for Code4Lib 2007 T-Shirt design
I hate to be the one to raise this, but it seems like I must since the
design is leading in the polls, but do we have (or can we obtain) the
right
to reproduce that photo?
