[Qgis-psc] Splash 2.14

[Otto Dassau]

Hi,

after Andreas' mail I just contacted the city of Essen, They agree with the
proposed solution: 

* put the text "QGIS Splash screen map courtesy of Stadt Essen" just below
  the GNU license URL instead of in the splash screen.

And additionally I would also vote for adding another sentence:

* Thanks to the Linux hotel (Essen) for hosting the 2012 and 2014 developer
  meetings 

So, whatever splash screen we take, we can leave out any small text.

Regards,
Otto
