As long as the image itself is the source the preferred format for
modification) and is included in the package with a free license, my
opinion is that DFSG's are fulfilled. If ftpmasters don't see it that
way, we'll have to push the conflict upwards. I don't plan on
uploading it to non-free, as it is indeed a free package.

Lets wait and see, though, and move from there when/if it happens. For
the moment I'm more concerned about making it work with latest
squeak-vm :)

Greetings and thanks,
