Full acronyms as text next to the icon is good, but again, I think you're putting too much weight on what is surely a very minor part of the page. With tooltips I wouldn't expect anyone to confuse the MIT license with the M+ license which we don't support and I have never heard of :) <blockquote>On 31 Jul 2009, 9:20 AM, "Nicolas Spalinger" <<a href="mailto:nicolas_spalinger@sil.org">nicolas_spalinger@sil.org</a>> wrote: Robert Martinez wrote: > Dave Crossland wrote: >> 2009/7/30 Robert Martinez <<a href="mailto:mail@mray.de">mail@mray.de</a>>: >> >>>...Thanks for the efforts on this. It looks good but is rather confusing IMHO for people who haven't heard of these licenses before... I agree that tooltips and links are needed. If we loose the word "License" then we have space for the full acronyms. Much more understandable like that I think. For example the "M" license can be confused with the M+ license <a href="http://mplus-fonts.sourceforge.jp/mplus-outline-fonts/ (project-specific" target="_blank">http://mplus-fonts.sourceforge.jp/mplus-outline-fonts/ (project-specific</a> license). Various other licenses start with letters O M G. I'm sure sure a letter guessing game is really all that useful as DRE (Digital Right Expression) :-) The book looks relatively thick to me: our licenses are not so long (well apart from the GPL maybe but rightfully so...), what about something which looks more like a one-page document and the acronyms overlaid slightly on the side? Maybe the Tango or GNOME icons can provide some inspiration: <a href="http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library" target="_blank">http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library</a> <a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Text-x-generic.svg" target="_blank">http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Text-x-generic.svg</a> HTH, Cheers, -- Nicolas Spalinger, NRSI volunteer Debian/Ubuntu font teams / OpenFontLibrary <a href="http://planet.ope.">http://planet.ope.</a>..</blockquote>
