Hi Matthew, When committing work that you did not create (e.g. this logo) or a software patch that was submitted in a Jira, the originator of the work should be acknowledged in the commit message. This helps record the information for posterity (via 'svn log incubator/kitty/site/trunk/content/kitty/images/kitty-logo.png' or wherever the file ends up after graduation). The commit message can be edited, but confess I'd have to read svn doc to remember/figure out how... In this case, the image was created by Javier Mozo [email protected]. You claim that we can apply the Apache License to the work. This is a relatively small work (but still much appreciated). We trust you (or I trust you). So, all is well. For larger works, more stringent requirements might be required -- e.g. a software grant, an ICLA, personal communication from the creator, etc. --kevan
