Thanks for all the replies. I've just mailed him last night to see if we can use the strip(s) for the tees.

So now, aside from this, everyone put on their Python-thinking caps, and/or vote on a strip. :) Cheers, /// Vicky ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ http://irishbornchinese.com ~~ ~~ http://www.python.ie ~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 9:56 AM, Aoife Hughes <[email protected]>wrote: > > Yeah, just for reference, he lists his work as being under the > Creative Commons 2.5 attribution non-commercial license (ref: > http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.5/ ) - so as long as we're > accrediting him (probably on the t-shirt) and not turning a profit on > it, we should be good. > > Of course, it's still good manners to send him a mockup of the design > (or maybe a t-shirt), but otherwise I'd say a cost-price t-shirt with > some small print saying parts are from his work would fall under the > terms of that CC license. > > By the way, please note I'm not a lawyer, just a software engineer, so > there is no legal worth to any of the above. > > Aoife > > 2009/2/12 John Byrne <[email protected]>: > > > > Have you read the About section on the website?
