There could be issues with say, emulator screenshots showing non-free games or Microsoft Office in wine, BeOS in qemu or a game in contrib with non-free graphics or a game in main with a mod from outside Debian or something. The other thing is that for the purposes of screenshots.d.n the fair use provisions in some jurisdictions might be enough, the PDF produced by SPI legal counsel discusses this. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
