Permission to use some Django material ?

[Stan]

Hi,

I am working on a small app providing Ajax search for a ModelChoiceFieldLike in addition to an admin-like related lookup (pop up to changelist). Is it possible for me to embed the magnifier image from admin statics ? (static/admin/img/selector-search.gif)

Thanks.

Stanislas.

Hi Stanislas,

Django is licensed under the terms of the BSD license. This means you can use any of Django's source code -- including images -- for whatever purpose, commercial or otherwise, as long as whatever you use is suitably attributed, and you don't make any claims that what you've done is endorsed by Django or it's contributors.

The license text itself is quite easy to read:

https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/LICENSE

Yours,

Russ Magee %-)

Thanks Russ,

Do you know if there is a best way to "suitably attribute" images ? Maybe a text file beside REAME.txt / LICENCE.txt ?

Cheers,

Stanislas

Hi Stan,

I would simply include some text in the license noting that some images are taken from the Django source and their usage is subject to it's license, with a link to the Django license.  I'm sure that'd be plenty sufficient attribution.

All the best,

  Tom

Sounds like a decent solution. Many thanks.
