LXQt ports of the old-school default GTK Engines themes

This repository houses ports of the 6 default themes that came with the gtk(2)-engines package - Crux, Industrial, Mist, Raleigh, Redmond, and ThinIce. Remember those? :) Good times, good times. I've also made palettes for each of them.

lxqt-themes-gtk2's Issues

Thanks & packaging & licenses

Hey,

Thanks so much for all of the effort you put into recreating all of these themes. I was quite sad about the demise of the classic GTK2 themes, and they look better than ever running under LXQt now. Really great work and attention to detail.

I'm interested in putting together some distribution packages for your themes, and hosting them in my (super unofficial) public repositories for Gentoo and Debian. If that's alright with you, then I'd like to clarify:

• There's no license file in this repo, would you mind adding one please? I'm assuming this is under the GPL v3 like the others.

• You can choose to apply the GPL at one specific version (i.e. "GPL 3 only"), or to allow users to additionally use newer, as-yet-unreleased versions of the GPL if it suits them (i.e. "GPL 3 or later"), depending on whether you think the newer licenses will be an improvement. After including the license file, usually somewhere (e.g. the readme) should state whether newer versions of the GPL are allowed or not (or, see "How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs" at the bottom of the GPL). Only including the license file is ambiguous.

  This is probably a very minor issue in this case, but recording correct license information is important so that users know what they're allowed to do with the software. I've seen some great old themes with no license information at all, and it unfortunately makes it legally questionable to package them.

Thanks for your time, and again for the great themes.
