Oh, I missed it, shame on me.

The link says:

So this one part means this needs to be attributed to AdaCore, the  
company? May be in an “About” page or something similar. That's not a big  
issue, except if it means an explicit reference to AdaCore, while I'm  
seeking for a logo which refers to Ada and Ada users and applications as a  
whole, not AdaCore exclusively.

This contradicts with the quote you made from the referring page:

Obviously, it will be used as authorized by the mentioned license, as  
there is no transformation or derivation (just colourization, as the  
original is a grayscale picture), so this is as much obvious I don't have  
to credit AdaCore, the company?

That's for a tiny thing, but I want to be sure it's OK, as it will  
purposely be clearly visible on multiple pages header.

I wish ISO had published a standard logo for Ada aside the ARM (teasing).
