Over in pyx-user we've been discussing adding "ColorBrewer" color schemes (www.colorbrewer.org). Here's the license (below). It's "Apache-like". If we were to use them, it's clearly "source form" redistribution. I don't think adding the copyright/conditions/disclaimer is a problem, or the acknowledgement, or putting the appropriate text in the manual. The only thing I don't know about is the compatibility of this license with the GPL. Thoughts?
