Matthias Bläsing commented on NETBEANS-2417:
--------------------------------------------
I stated it already in the associated PR: The branding guidelines are of
secondary concern. The branding assets on the page can't be used, as no license
is attached to them. No license means, that we can't use the logos (copyright).
Acceptable licenses are listed in the Apache legal faq:
[https://apache.org/legal/resolved.html] (Category A preferred, Category B ok).
Everything else will be painful in the long run.
For npm a similar discussion was done - the "official logo" was not provided
under a usable license, so the logo was retrieved from a secondary source, that
licensed the artwork as CC-0 and was updated to match our expectations. The
trademark question (may we use a potential trademark), was positively answered
by apache legal. That is the icon represents the "referenced" product in
situations where the name would not be appropriate (representing file types).
Long story short: To use the "official" gradle logo, it needs to be provided
under an acceptable license. The licenseinfo.xml needs to be updated to reflect
that license.
