matthiasblaesing commented on issue #1034: NETBEANS-1499 - change package.json icon URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/1034#issuecomment-453640354 Of course the logo is covered under a license. I can only speak for germany, if I don't give you a license to use my work, than can't use it. I don't need to do anything to protect it. I'll assume, that it is similar in other countries. That is independed of trademark law, which from my POV in this case does not even apply, as the icon only symbolizes the application the file belongs to. I'll make a sample. Consider font-awesome: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/blob/master/svgs/brands/npm.svg The file is covered by the CC-BY-4.0 license: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome#license So we could render that, add attribution for it to the apache notice file and be done with it. For a list of acceptable licenses, please see the apache legal faq: Good: https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a Problematic, but possible: https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b
