THE PLACE FOR ALL THINGS BRYCE - GOT A PROBLEM? YOU'VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE


Subject: Licensing - important for those of us that create or use freebies

Lately I've become more and more interested in the concept of Open Source and the kind of Open Source lincenses that exists (BSD, GNU, GPL etc) and what they offer. There is one called "Creatic Commons license" (CC). It offers "a flexible range of protections and freedoms for authors and artists". Instead of making up my own terms everty time I release a new freebie ("this may be used for that but not for that etc") I should refer to a specific CC-license that is commonly kown and accepted and fits my needs. Check out the cartoons "Spectrum of licenses" and "how it works" - they explain it really well. http://creativecommons.org There is also a small wizard that helps you define the license type you need. This is for example what I will use: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/ What do you think?

yeah, that's more than fine. i first met with the CC thing when reading blogs. as for GNU/GPL, i discovered those when dealing with wings3D. i've never really researched them though. m

Looks great. BTW, take a look at http://www.craphound.com/ for two novels and a story collection done under CC license.
