Jacques,
I was going to contact Mark James about the possibility to use his icons but
in the contact form he is quite explicit about permission asking e-mail.

Taken from: http://www.famfamfam.com/about/

"If sending me a message regarding icon licencing, please don't expect a
response if you ask 'I'm using your Silk icon set and linking to you from a
footer/credits page, is this OK?' (the answer is yes), if you wish to ask
"Do the Flag/Mini icons sets need attribution or a link" (the answer is no –
both sets are public domain), or if you wish to ask "Do the icons come in
larger sizes?" (Unfortunately not, wysiwyg)."

It seems definitively that we can use them!
-Bruno
