Thanks to Asheesh for pointing me at
http://freeculture.org/pipermail/discuss/2007-February/000941.html and
the subsequent thread.

It seems that as we churned through ideas for "remix" and "share" icons
the provenance of those ideas got temporarily lost.  Sorry about that!
(Yes, I feel the irony.)

CC would prefer to continue using the building block icon to for "remix"
-- if the sentiment of FC.o agrees.  We'd be happy to acknowledge taking
the idea from FC.o's logo, as we should have done initially -- probably
in a blog post and on our http://creativecommons.org/presskit page where
we publish sources for graphic elements, but not on every deed.

But if the sentiment of FC.o is against CC using a FC.o logo like icon
to denote "remix", we'll come up with a new design (ideas welcome!).

It doesn't seem like there's a consensus on the matter, so discuss, or
let me know if I missed the boat.

Thanks,
Mike

p.s. Now I'm on another darned mailing list. :)
