   @matthiasblaesing 
   Excellent links. I think it would be wonderful if this was the case. And is 
also what I've always thought myself. The whole _fair use_ thing. This is why I 
started out with suggesting 
[PR251](https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/251) but perhaps it 
went haywire because I said "please validate assumption before merging" in the 
request or perhaps it went haywire because I opened LEGAL-343 and because we 
don't get a response. (I suspect ASF legal are volunteers like the rest of us)
   
   I still don't understand why Oracle chose to remove exactly these icons - 
out of literally hundreds of icons in the NetBeans code base. Why?  I don't 
think they removed them because of problems with the art-work license, because 
then they would have removed the generic icon from the same folder too.
   
   How to move on?
