Why the mixup of license policy again? We really need to avoid confusing
contributors.
See the previous thread where this was discussed:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/openfontlibrary/2009-July/002381.html
We really need to use official logos of our licenses. Get in touch with
the authors of MIT for that one. The GPLv3 + FE logo needs to be
different from standard http://www.gnu.org/graphics/license-logos.html
for clarity.
Seriously, what will "a generic free" keyword/icon blanket category
bring apart from confusion about what "free" means?
