[theme-reviewers] GPL-compatible social media icon sets

[Kirk Wight]

Orman Clark's icon set is not GPL-compatible. From the licensing page:

"You are not permitted to make the resources found on Premium Pixels
available for distribution elsewhere “as is” without prior consent."

The best list so far is still the one mentioned on the Theme Review Codex
page:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Review#GPL-Compatible_Icon_Sets

Be careful when evaluating other icon sets. A lot of them are "open
source", "free for personal and commercial use" or "Creative Commons", but
these are not necessarily GPL-compatible. A good resource is the FSF's own
comments about various licenses:
