If Windows is using a non-standard theme then surely it would be possible to just paste an awn taskbar or some faked-widgets or something to make it seem that the Windows is really a themed linux? Regards from Tom :)

You see screenshots of software running under > Windows *all over the Internet*... ;-) We're perfectly safe. ;-) No, it's not my interpretation (I know I may not have a full understanding of another language :), we never get a firm statement but only different interpretations from lawyers, this is why we have decided to not use screen shots made using Windows. I can't remember where the discussions occurs on the OOo site, maybe website list, I'll point you to the archives otherwise. It may sound stupid, but can you imagine that I had to declare people using ssh for the OOoFR site in France several years ago because the encryption we used was not allowed and considered as a security issue. I'm sure the Debian contributors never have to do so. Just to say that we have to be cautious. > > In any case, I already took a large number of screenshots, and our > documentation is *full* of screenshots taken under Windows, so this > would involve an *enormous* amount of work to rectify...... ;-) Yes may be, but it's not a sufficient reason to continue to take the risk :). The more we are visible and known, the more we are exposed.
