Regarding images used in the tutorial, specially where it was asked to license the pictures/images that are a product of spatial analysis or some procedure: <br><br>Couldn't we make a few "stub" images representing basic operations and give them away for free? Without actual data? I know it doesn't cover all cases, but it's a start. Something like the one attached?<br>

Simon,<br>

Thank you for the hard work you have put into summarizing the copyright<br>
issues related to OSGeo content. I have a personal goal of preparing<br>
some articles and tutorials related to FOSS geospatial software. I<br>
didn't give enough consideration to the licensing of the (1) tutorial<br>
text, (2) screenshots of software, and (3) geospatial data used in the<br>
tutorial. In some other cases we might need to consider licensing of<br>
another tutorial component, the source code presented and discussed in<br>
an article.<br>
<br>
I hope you get some constructive feedback on your summary. I believe it<br>
raised some important issues.<br>
