A few panel graphics have uncertain license terms when it comes to redistribution and usage within Cardinal. Cardinal authors have requested permission to the creators/owners of such graphics, for use and redistribution of the same.
This document gives details on such licenses where there is no online resource to directly link to (permission request happened via private chat or email). Below follows a direct copy and paste of each individual request.

Hello!
My name is Filipe Coelho (or "falkTX" around the web, submitted a couple pull requests on GitHub recently).
I am writing to you to explicitly ask permission.I have been working on a little opensource project that consolidates VCVRack and a few other 3rd party modules into a single application/binary.
As you known, VCV has a software version of your modules for "VCV Rack", I would like to use them too.
They mention in their README:The panel graphics in the res/ folder are copyright © Emilie Gillet and are used and distributed with permission.
It is unclear to me if this permission relates to only VCV itself, or anyone forking and reusing their project.
My intent is simply to repackage what is already made but inverting the background panel color for a "dark mode" look, which in my opinion looks quite nice.
The resource files (svgs) are actually unchanged, I apply a sorta post-processing filter to only invert specific colors on specific panels.
The end result is this: https://i.imgur.com/sU5YJTy.jpgLet me know what you think, and if this is okay with you.
Thank you and have a great day.

I am writing to you as a clarification request.
VCV hosts a software version of one of your CV modules, where its license details specify:The panel graphics in the res/ directory are copyright © Synthesis Technology and are used and distributed with permission.
It is unclear to me if this permission relates to only VCV itself, or anyone forking and reusing the project.
My intent is simply to repackage what is already made, so far as the ESeries project is concerned, with the only exception being color inversion of the background panel. The file itself is unchanged, I apply a sorta post-processing filter to invert specific colors on specific panels.
