Hi,I'm wondering by wich licence are protected the logotype and icon of BOINIC. I'd like to "promote" a little the project on Polish Wikipedia by making a userbox (like that:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Userboxes/Galleries/All )
with the icon (or logotype) of BOINIC and text: "This Wikipedist shares his/her computer's power for science good". Can I do it? I don't want to infringe a copyrigh.

PS. I'm sorry for mistakes, I'm not native speaker.

First make sure to name the program correctly: it's called B O I N C
Second, whatever is needed is written on https://boinc.berkeley.edu/logo.php

The BOINC logo and its variants are in the public domain. If you use one of them in a web page, we ask that you link it to the BOINC web site (currently https://boinc.berkeley.edu) or display this URL near the image.
