Hi,

In trying to upgrade to the latest upstream for stormbaancoureur for the Debian Games Team, Paul Wise caught the following in the package.

From /stormbaancoureur-2.0.1/images-stormbaancoureur/README

"engine.tga
Rendered from purchased 3D model"

I contacted the author and received the following response:

>>#2.  engine.tga.  In the README you state that it is rendered from a 3D
>>model that you purchased.  That likely makes it non-free for Debian's
>>purposes.  Can you be more specific with that?  Is it Copyrighted to
>>someone else?
>
>No, the image is copyrighted by me.
>I purchased the right to make renderings from a 3D model.
>
>This 3D model is not included in the game.

Is this even possible?  If he provides copyright are we covered?

This is a bit of a priority because the current version in the archive contains the same file.

Please CC with replies if possible as I am not on the list.

Thank you!

Barry deFreese
