Would the license not spell out trouble for anyone using the svgs on a GitHub pages site?

I currently do this(tf2manu994/manmeetgill.com on github, gitlab and bitbucket), and I am a backer for pro. Does this mean I can not use the pro icons on my site without forcing a user to download the entire iconfont?

[Yes I know, the markup on my site is crap, currently in the process of reworking without mdl]

Nope. Folks will be able to use just certain icon packs on their site. For more granular control, the $350k goal was a desktop icon subsetter.

Would embedding the output of the desktop app in a GitHub pages repo be allowed

I think we'd be fine with that. Seems removed enough and isn't the whole set.

It's a good area for us to think about and be more specific about. I'll talk to the team and see what we can do.
