Bill? Let's see if I remember correctly (and the CVS logs may or may not corroborate) about that time we revamped the icons. There had already been a README that indicated where the existing (GTK) icons came from. It had text like "The following icons are from GTK+ 2.x and GNOME 2.x. They are not part of Emacs, but distributed and used by Emacs." but I don't think that it had any more copyright information. I don't think I added anything more than that. At the time, I merely updated the text to indicate a more recent version of GNOME/GTK, and included a lot more icons. I also added the recipe for creating PBM versions. I vaguely remember the AUCTeX stuff, but the ChangeLog and diffs, of course, would be authoritative. -- Bill Wohler http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD
