A good question. While I have been modifying the css file during the
years of my maintainership, I have not touched the png images.
Historically projects have often been shipping the generated files with
tarballs.

This commit added the png files (in 2002):
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk-doc/commit/?id=693e30961614e4a05f8d2694c4ad32b0306c650c

I am confident that we can license the css to whatever we want. In this
commit
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk-doc/commit/?id=07971801371971f69b03c190d91aab4e5177e5c5
it was extracted from the xsl file.

What license would work well? Creative Commons? We can probably do
something like autotools:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=blob;f=COPYING.EXCEPTION
<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=blob;f=COPYING.EXCEPTION;>
but I am not up to the task to formulate such an exception.
