Thanks, Andrea.  

I see what is questioned about that page.

This folder also appears on the AOO410 branch and I assume it appears in source 
releases.

The steps for clearing this appear to involve the following:

 1. Confirm that the ooo_custom_images are covered by the Oracle Software Grant 
Agreement to the Apache Software Foundation.  (I just noticed the SGA 
yesterday; I'll take a look.)

 2. Assuming that it is covered, remove the license information but not any of 
the non-removable notices and the acknowledgments.  

 3. Side Project: Figure out how to have RAT, the IP checking software, find 
such files as this in a reliable manner.  (I noticed this problem on another 
project, too.) 

 4. Plan B: If there is some concern that a good-faith reliance on the SGA is 
inappropriate or questionable, remove the industrial folder and any dependency 
on its contents.

It's there at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk/main/ooo_custom_images/industrial/README
and (nicer)
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/ooo_custom_images/industrial/README?view=markup

As I see it (but haven't checked history) it seems that these files are 
covered by Sun's JCA and thus inherited by Oracle, which should (I can't 
check now if they were explicitly included in the Oracle grant or not) 
have included them in the grant as for the other files.

Were these files forgotten in the grant? Or were headers not updated? 
Note that I don't recall ever examining the grant, so I'm not the best 
person for this. But if the investigation results in changes relevant 
for OpenOffice 4.1.2 we can surely include it.

Regards,
   Andrea.
