Hi > If there is a potential problem with a license I'm at a loss. ^^° Well, I might be totally wrong ^^ but that's why I ask. Let's say I add the logo of my project (Spellchecker.lu) to the default proofreader banner, shipped with OOo. Because of the LGPL, wouldn't I have to release my logo under the LGPL as well? I'd like to keep all the rights on my logo, so I think I won't be able to modify the default proofreader banner. But as I said, I might be totally wrong, I'm far from being a license expert. Maybe someone on the list is :-)
