[GenABEL-dev] layout of GenABEL main page

The license is the one we decide on - I paid for the logo and own the
copyright et al.

So I was thinking we can release it under some license which would allow
people to play with it. At the same time I would like to make sure that the
original logo and the derivatives are used only for the GenABEL project.

Any ideas what is good license for that? I am a bit lost on that... - some
variant of Creative Commons license?

YA
