Bug#787953: ITP: insubstantial -- Swing libraries (flamingo/substance/trident)



hello Markus,

Fortunately, I was wrong with my CC-BY-SA-2.5 assumption, recent
tango icons are public-domain:

Yes, I agree, I've removed it (since it is hard to find precise
licensing terms).

I prepared everything but cannot re-import (without katakana.ttf)
because of limited bandwidth (the unfiltered source is ~95Mb).

Please do not upload yet, I'll reimport as soon as possible (the new DSL
router will arrive on Thursday, I will be able to upload then at the
latest).

BTW, concerning:

Are there other packages that need to be migrated (now that I've figured
out how to do it ;-)?

Thanks and Best Regards,
