Although an interesting question would be, if for example the logo is 
allowed to be sold as part of a t-shirt. If not, that would be a pretty 
big deal. It would be much better to have a standard license with proper 
legal terminology. So contacting the author seems to be an imperative if 
this is the design to base the brand upon.
