oh! ho!, depends on 1) which jurisdiction 2) how smart your lawyer is for this one 3) if specific icons and graphic elements, drawn in the original, with the source files, are released under gpl or any similar copyleft license. 4) how much cloned is clone. that's a tough one. we have precedent of several cases where 'look and feel' cases have either lost, or won. the losers are the too much look and too much feel. so the lawyers have to define 'too much' here....
