Seeking Permission to Use Photos From www.Calligra.org on About.com

[Markus]

Hello.
Except the banner graphic all photos are screenshots. I am no member of the 
Calligra team but I know about rules surrounding free software.
As Calligra is free software under LGPL and GPL licenses (including artwork 
such as icons), the same licenses automatically apply to screenshots. As long 
as you mention somewhere in the article that Calligra is licensed under GPL 
and LGPL, link to those licenses (somewhere on gnu.org), and write in some 
corner "© Calligra developers / KDE Oxygen artists" or something along those 
lines, you should be perfectly OK (similar rules apply to every open source 
software).

Official Calligra logos can be obtained here: 
http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Logos
Calligra is a project within the KDE community. Its logos are available here:
http://kde.org/stuff/clipart.php

BTW: In past weeks/months I updated the Wikipedia articles around Calligra, 
incl. the screenshots. Feel free to dig through 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calligra_Suite as well as the sub pages for 
individual applications. The screenshots obviously follow the same rules as 
described above.
