FlannelHi guys, I've got a couple of questions about CC0, is anyone around who could field them? (or direct me to a better location to ask)03:57
paulproteusFlannel: The main CC folks aren't around right now. They usually are during business hours US time.04:05
paulproteusI might possibly be able to help, though.04:05
FlannelThanks paulproteus.  Mind doing it in a query?04:10
paulproteusI'd rather keep in-channel, if possible.04:10

FlannelAlright, that just means I have to pretend to know at least a little bit about what I'm talking about ;)04:19
FlannelI'm looking to license a printed work, and would love to license it under the deprecated CC-SA, because from what I understand, anything with BY would require attribution (and a growing list of attribution as it gets modified) to remain on the finished product04:21
FlannelSo, all the CC-* stuff is out, CC-SA is deprecated, so I've moved on to WTFPL or CC0.  I don't care about people using my work commercially, and really "do whatever" is fine by me (I intend to recommend they give back and stuff, entirely non-bindingly)04:22
FlannelThe difference between CC0 and some other license is that I'm 'giving up' my rights, and I'm curious as to what exactly that entails.  I'm a bit hazy on it all, and don't like the idea of doing something I don't fully understand.04:24
FlannelI suppose I didn't really ask a question there, did I?  Uh, so, like if I licenced it [some other way] and then later on wanted to relicense it some other way (perhaps to a company for their own use or whatnot), it's my understanding that I wouldn't be able to do that with CC0, because I don't own the rights anymore.  Is that accurate?04:26
FlannelAnd is this point moot because [anyone] could use the CC0 for whatever they wanted (the company could use it already)?04:26

greg-gFlannel: hey, sorry I didn't answer your PM from ages ago, it completely feel off my radar.13:32
greg-gSo, if you release your work under a CC0 waiver (it is a waiver not a license) then anyone can do anything with it. So, if you later want some company to be able to do something with it and they ask you for a license, your response would (and should be): "there are no copyright restrictions on this work, you are free to do with it what you like"13:33

ea4xgrnathany: hello, thanks for the reply16:03
*** Bovinity has quit IRC16:04
ea4xgrnathany: when it comes to CURIE discussion,  I have realized that 1) although there is a mechanism for resolving the base URI (independent of pyRDFa) in libvalidator, it is not used at all16:04
ea4xgrI did not realized that before, thus I came up with resolving CURIE in the base URI16:04
nathanyok16:04
ea4xgraside of the RDFa method, do you think that resolving CURIEs would make sense?16:05
ea4xgrI know that the comment method is deprecated, however, are methods like data: URI deprecated?16:05
nathanyea4xgr, yes, data: URIs and RDF/XML in-a-comment should both show a warning16:06
ea4xgrso are we simply considering anything but RDFa a deprecated method?16:06
nathanyfor [X]HTML, yes16:07
ea4xgrokay16:07
ea4xgrso do you think that resolving CURIEs outside RDFa for [X]HTML should take place?16:08
nathanyno16:08
nathanyi'm not 100% certain about this, but I think the places they're valid is very well defined16:08
ea4xgrwould it be valid or is considered to be valid in future, to have CURIE in a standalone RDF (not RDFa) which could then be say <link rel> in [X]HTML head?16:09
nathanyif we handle them when we process the RDFa, I think we get all the places we need to handle them covered16:09
ea4xgrI'm referring to W3C now, not the license point of view16:09
nathanyi think so, but i'm not 100% certain16:10
ea4xgrit boils down to the question of whether CURIEs are to be within/or applied to XML spec16:11
ea4xgror in/to some XML application in particular ([X]HTML)16:11
*** oshani has quit IRC16:14
ea4xgrhttp://www.w3.org/TR/curie/#s_hostlanguages16:15
ea4xgrit does not seem like it would be incorporated into an XML spec16:15
ea4xgrit's a candidate recommendation already16:15
nathanyright16:15
nathanythanks for the reference16:15
ea4xgrso CURIE in RDF is and presumably is going to remain invalid16:16
ea4xgralthough probably not in terms of the syntax itself16:17
*** oshani has joined #cc16:17
*** stas has quit IRC16:18
ea4xgrfrom the semantic point of view, because the syntax holds16:18
ea4xgrI've just validated (via validator.w3.org), XHTML 1.0 Strict with href="foo:bar" and href="[foo:bar]" and it reported no errors16:19
akila872hello nathany16:19
ea4xgrnathany: suppose new updates for the validator will appear; who is able to upload them to the validator.creativecommons.org ? you and the other Nathan?16:21
nathanyhi akila87216:22
nathanyea4xgr, myself, nkinkade, paroneayea, or jed3 can all help with that; if we need to grant access to others, we cann16:22
akila872nathany: i sent you the code.16:22
ea4xgrok, thank you :)16:23
*** tvol has quit IRC16:24
nathanyakila872, yes, i received it; haven't had a chance to look closely, but thanks for sending that along16:26
akila872nathany: is there any client application for ccHost something like flikrj16:27
nathanyakila872, not that i'm aware of16:30
akila872nathany, ah ok, then i think i have to write the open clip art code from the scratch. i manged to get the data from the site, but images aren't displaying in the window.16:36
nathanyakila872, i don't know if they have an API or not, but i can connect you to the person developing that these days if you wanted to find out more about a possible "generic" wrapper for it16:38
akila872nathany, im glad if you can. however i manged to get the data using a simple code. just thought it would be better to have wrapper.16:42
nathanyright16:42
*** akozak has joined #cc16:46
akozaknkinkade, would you have a few minutes today to help me get Maps working on the CC wiki? My guess is that it's just an API key problem.16:50
*** mralex has joined #cc16:51
akozakor sometime in the future?16:51
nkinkadeakozak: Yeah.16:52
nkinkadeWhat's the problem?16:52
akozakThe #geocode parser isn't working: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Property:Coordinates16:52
akozakAnd I haven't been able to embed a map anywhere.16:54
akozakI should be able to do with Maps and not Semantic Maps, since we have ArrayFunctions16:55
akozakerr sorry ArrayExtension16:55

akozakamazonaws?17:39
akozaknathany, quick discovered question. I'm talking with someone whose feed isn't included in search results, and so I tested a crawl with just the one feed (http://opencontext.org/projects/.atom), and I get this error: [exec] Error parsing: http://opencontext.org/projects/.atom: failed(2,200): org.apache.nutch.parse.ParseException: parser not found for contentType=application/xml url=http://opencontext.org/projects/.atom17:47
akozakdoes that mean its reporting itself as xml17:47
akozakwhich is a problem for ded17:47
akozakwhen its supposed to be atom?17:47
nathanyakozak, yeah, sounds like a bug in the DEd feed content-type recognition17:48
nathanyCan you file it as a bug on code.creativecommons.org?17:48
nathanyakozak, I'd have to dig in a see what the underlying parser library is expecting to offer them meaningful advice17:49
akozaknathany, yes I'll do that. but would it be fixed if they were to add the correct content-type?17:49
akozakto the feed17:49
nathanyon the upside, asheesh and raffi are going to be in SF the last week of April to get spun up on things17:49
nathanyakozak, yes; i'm not sure what the proper content-type is, looking17:50
nathanyakozak, wikipedia says application/atom+xml17:51
*** tvol has joined #cc17:54
akozaknathany, is it accurate to say that it appears Nutch is mis-identifying the content type in the absence of a correct/explicit declaration in the feed?17:57
nathanyakozak, probably not; let me see what their server is reporting17:57
nathanyakozak, their server is reporting that it's application/xml17:58
akozaknathany, ah, ok, i don't actually know how content-type gets reported in teh first place...17:58
nathanyakozak, it's usually sent along with the response17:58
akozaknathany, then could it be that the nutch xml parser just isn't enabled right now?17:58
nathanywe're using the Rome parsing library, which is a Java library for handling all sorts of feeds17:58
nathanyit obviously registers handlers based on content-type17:59
nathanyakozak, no17:59
akozakah ok17:59
nathanyakozak, this is probably a bug in that we should make a best effort to parse things that aren't 100% compliant17:59
nathanybut it's also a misconfiguration -- application/xml is not the content type for Atom feeds18:00
akozakah ok. so should I send a note back to them about that and then also file a bug report?18:00
akozakfiled18:12
akozakawww: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9NP-AeKX4018:29
paroneayeaweird.  I can't run buildout on cc.engine from the library.  http://a9.creativecommons.org/~cwebber/eggs/ is inaccessible from here.18:31

akozakUseful for a very small number of people, I'm guessing19:00

paroneayeathere are other uris19:01
paroneayealike xmpp://cwebber@dustycloud.org19:01
paroneayeasome browsers will know that means a link to my xmpp address19:01
akozakright but none that are directly parsed by the browser, right? they're mainly shortcuts19:02
paroneayeasome browsers have ftp support19:02
akozakI'm not arguing for removing protocols from URIs, just from the browser display19:02
paroneayeawell, actually, probably all19:02
akozaki don't know, maybe its stupid19:03
