Policy Violation: Copyrighted 3rd party materials in Git repo

Policy Violation: Copyrighted 3rd party materials in Git repo

The theme/module TB Events comes bundled with the following 3rd party materials:

1. Trebuchet MS. © 2011 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. - http://cgit.drupalcode.org/tb_events/tree/fonts. This is copyrighted 3rd party materials ("All rights reserved") and it is illegal for the Drupal Association to distribute this file from its Git repo.
2. jquery.matchHeights.min.js - © 2010 Mike Avello - http://cgit.drupalcode.org/tb_events/tree/js/jquery.matchHeights.min.js

In addition, the origin of the images in http://cgit.drupalcode.org/tb_events/tree/images is not stated. Please list all the images that are own work in README.txt and make it clear that they are licensed under GPLv2+. Please remove any images that are not own work.

This project will be tagged as unsupported unless the 3rd party font MS Trebuchet is removed from the repo and the other policy violations are sorted out.

Third party code/assets is not generally allowed on Drupal.org and should be deleted. In addition the licenses for these third party materials also violates policy, since all files hosted on Drupal.org must be licensed under the GPL V2+ license.

For easy to find js/fonts/icons/images, the recommended method is to provide users with download and install instructions in the project's README file.

Please note:

This policy is described in the 3rd party libraries and content on Drupal.org. It also appears in the Drupal Git Repository Usage policy you agreed to when you signed up for Git access, which you may want to re-read, to be sure you're not violating other terms.

The Drupal Association recently approved a Licensing Working Group with the authority to finally deal with issues like this. #2553865: Multiple policy violations in projects owned by ThemeBrain is the parent issue in the LWG queue.

Once the process is established for dealing with violations, if the maintainers of the project do not resolve the issue the project will likely be unpublished and a notice will be posted to the project page.

More importantly, the maintainers who violated the Drupal Git Repository Usage Policy risk losing their git privileges.
