We include the FamFam Icon set (see: From: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/) which is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/>. OR Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/> but the author of FamFam would like to see this additional info in the derivate work: *As an author, I would appreciate a reference to my authorship of the Silk icon set contents within a readme file or equivalent documentation for the software which includes the set or a subset of the icons contained within. * So that is what I have done. I have added the reference to FamFam in the NOTICE file. What is wrong about it?
