Hi All,

I was wondering, how the BSD license applies to images (as on
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/graphics/).

I am working on a magazine ad, and was wondering whether i could use
one of those PostgreSQL logo's. The idea is to have a bar of logo's
of supported products in the ad, among which is PostgreSQL.

But the BSD license talks about source code and binary form,
mentioning that the copyright should be included. So, is it correct
to state that the logo can be used in an ad, providing that it
mentions that the logo is copyright by such-and-such..?

Thanks,

Koen Martens
