Comment by 172pilot in Open Source Hardware Question:
Couldnt agree more - Isn't the whole purpose of OPEN SOURCE to be so that we can use, and improve-upon other's creations without the worry of this nonsense? It CLEARLY is a logo which represents that the OSHW group is respecting the ideals of the OS software community, while expanding the concept to apply to a wider audience. How can the irony be lost on them?
If they dont come back BEGGING for OSHW to use their logo, saying "Sorry - an overanxious lawyer who's new to the group got ahold of this..." then I think OSHW should create a whole new logo on their own.. No way should they PAY a LICENSE FEE for an OPEN SOURCE LOGO. That just defeats the WHOLE purpose and spirit of open source.
