Re: Pixel photos

Guys, one of the *only* things that a lot of people get in FOSS in return for their work is attribution.

I told you who the photos were by, I did not say that they were in the public domain, the least you could have done in your press release is attribute. Completely ignoring the fact that most works not in the public domain is *not cool*.

This is not the first time this has happened. A photo of mine was used for the Desktop Summit news post: that photo was licensed under CC-by and I was not attributed. The Foundation therefore breached the license which makes the Foundation liable.

By not complying with licenses, you put the Foundation at risk. Really not cool, so please don't do it.

For the text:

- high-definition *and touch support*

- Intel donated only 5 laptops, not 6

- …Wayland as a result *of* this donated…

I strongly recommend that you list who received the laptops, who they are working for and what they are working on for transparency reasons. If you do not want to do it in the news article, I will blog about it as it is not currently publicly available, which is not particularly open.

Photos of two of the donated pixels. I tried to get photos from other recipients, but no luck. As far as I am aware, the following people have one:

- Allan Day (Red Hat) from Intel

- Alexander Larsson (Red Hat) the other donation

- Carlos Garnacho (Lanedo) from Intel

- David King (Red Hat) from Intel

- Jakub Steiner (Red Hat) from Intel

- Jasper St. Pierre (Red Hat) from Intel

It would be nice to say who got them in the announcement.

IMGP* are by Allan Day

L1006499 is by me

L1006502 is by David King
