GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 461267
New Anglo-American playing cards
Last modified: 2012-01-31 23:19:22 UTC
As noted in a mail to games-list[1] I created a deck of anglo-american playing cards. I will attach the newest version to this bug report. Aike [1] http://mail.gnome.org/archives/games-list/2007-July/msg00012.html
Created attachment 92603 [details] playing cards
Thanks for the cards, we'll have them included in gnome-games-extra-data soon. (Unless someone has some more suggestions for improvement...)
The fronts are very nice, but I think the red back pattern still clashes too much with the green baize background...
Created attachment 92653 [details] anglo.svg New version: now back is blue with white border
Created attachment 93080 [details] anglo.svg id "back" was missing
Thanks for the cards, Aike. They have been committed to gnome-games-extra-data now, and will be included in the next release. Further contributions to gnome-games would be greatly appreciated!
I was researching our artwork's licensing, and have a question: Aike: can you please state explicitly here on the bug which licence this work is licensed under?
My intention was to put the deck under the same license as Gnome Games/Gnome Games Extra Data, which is the GNU GPL (without any version info in the READMEs but most code is version 2 or later). The copyright notice of the package is applicable. From gnome-games-extra-data: "Copying of this package is covered under under the GPL, see the file COPYING for details." If you want to give the user more freedom please use the following copyright notice (e.g. in README.anglo) and add the text of the GNU FDL: anglo.svg and anglo_bitmap.svg are copyright © 2007, 2008 Aike Reyer <aike@users.sourceforge.net> These images are free software; you can redistribute them and/or modify them under the terms of either: * the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version * the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.

This bug is being reassigned to the "general" component so we can close the aisleriot bugzilla component. Apologies for the mass email!
