Don't really mind the About Box modifications...

The only thing I am upset with is that they haven't posted the gnome patches they used on the internet.

Sent them an email asking where they are and they replied with the CVS address of the Solaris edition of GNOME.

What happened to GPL?

What's wrong with allowing us to see the modifications to GPL-ed code. Stripped from the art-work if they want to, or under a different licence for the artwork & other Sun Branded eye-candy. I don't need the Sun Logos, but I'm rather curious about other things they did (e.g. with nautilus & gnome-vfs).
