Have you heard anything back regarding this? Burgundavia (&#9992; take a flight?) 05:01, May 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * No, I haven't sent the letter because I don't know where to find it. Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 09:26, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Hmm, ok, I am going to go to Phase II with this. Burgundavia (&#9992; take a flight?) 09:32, May 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * Found it - Boilerplate request for permission. Who should it be sent to? There are two possibilities - images at noao dot edu - or - outreach at noao dot edu - which would be better, and how should the letter be worded? Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 15:31, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Just ask them to release it under the cc-by-sa 2.0. That is simple, easy to understand license, that is clearly free. Burgundavia (&#9992; take a flight?) 09:19, May 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry, didn't see this until today - I've sent the letter (a modified version of Neutrality's semi-formal image request) asking them to release it under GFDL or cc-by-sa-2.5 (yes, there is a new version!). Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 18:03, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, that means commercial. I suspect the answer is going to be no. Burgundavia (&#9992; take a flight?) 19:36, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for all the work on these. Burgundavia (&#9992; take a flight?) 18:10, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * As I suspected, the answer was no. Or rather "Since under your GNU Free Documentation License images can be reproduced for commercial purposes and may be modified - we decline your offer to include our NOAO images in the Wikipedia at this time. Thank you." Deletion time then. Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 16:50, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for tracking this down. Image is (unhappily) gone. Burgundavia (&#9992; take a flight?) 23:19, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)
