Hi Devid,
I've just processed gui-ufw in the Ubuntu NEW queue, and seen the following:

This is correct, thank you for providing an accurate copyright file!
However, the CC by-nc license is not a free license because it prohibits
reuse for commercial purposes, so this package will be included in
multiverse - which I doubt was your intent.
You might want to talk to upstream about finding a suitable replacement
image that can be included in universe.
Separately, I have some significant concerns about the implementation of
this GUI, because it's editing files under /etc/ufw directly and it probes
around in users' home directories to decide which ports to open for P2P
services rather than letting the packages provide this information through
the new /etc/ufw/applications.d interface. But these are not concerns that
block the package's inclusion in the archive.
Cheers,
