jakindotLou, it looks like it's pulling in RDFa from <a rel="license" href="...00:49
dotLouI'm trying to make the license link show that people have to link to my site and such, but still make the page validate.00:50
dotLouThat didn't work =p00:50
*** tvol has joined #CC00:51
jakinyou could try adding an about="your url" attribute to the link00:52
dotLoubut it doesn't even validate yet00:53
dotLouI'm trying to make this work but purely with rdf in the comments00:54
dotLouhttp://beta2.dotlou.com/00:55
dotLouclick the cc link at the bottom00:55
dotLouyou'll see that it says "Attribution. You must attribute this work to dotLou (with link)."00:55
dotLouI want to ensure this happens anyway, but still have my page validate.00:55
dotLouWhich is loads harder then I had originally intended.00:55

tannewtdotLou, I think it was just changed01:03
dotLou?01:03
jakinyeah, they're pushing rdfa instead of rdf in comments01:03
*** bse_ has quit IRC01:04
dotLouwell right now I don't even get comment code from the license making script01:04
dotLouI just get some invalid xhtml code for text to put on my site and stuff01:04

dotLouthat's the code I get from the cc website01:08
dotLouThat's the code that doesn't validate.01:09
*** tvol_ has quit IRC01:09
jakinyeah, it looks like you're right.  it's something to bring up with nathan.  generating this code is pretty new...01:09
*** e-star has quit IRC01:10
dotLouI intend to use CC to license my Content Management system, and I really like the way it loads a (sort-of) custom license page, but I need to validate the website.01:10
paulproteusdotLou, http://dotlou.pastebin.com/m55b376cb01:12
jakinhmm... this says that the property attribute is XHTML 2: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2007/02/14/introducing-rdfa.html01:12
paulproteusYou can remove the stuff that doesn't validate for you.01:12
paulproteusIt's a nicety for when XHTML 2 is around, but you can't necessarily use it yet.01:12
bse__keep in mind CC is a content license, and not a software license; your CMS app would be under something like GPL or BSD.01:12
dotLouthe stuff that doesn't validate, is the stuff that makes the license a custom page :-/01:12
paulproteusI'll ask nathany for an official answer, but the extra stuff that wasn't validating is not required.01:12
paulproteusdotLou, Not true; rel="license" is enough for that.01:12
dotLouI'll try01:13
paulproteusIt's not enough for the future super-awesome license page, but since your document type doesn't support that, I think we'll be okay the way things are.01:13
dotLounope01:13
dotLoudoesn't work01:13
paulproteusWhat doesn't work about it?01:14
dotLouwell I will be, but I'd much rather use this01:14
dotLouWell I'd love the "super-awesome license page" but I can't if I want it to validate it seems.01:14
dotLouI really don't see why it's not possible.01:14
paulproteusdotLou, There are some complications between XHTML1 and XML namespaces.01:14
paulproteusI think bse__ gave you a link on that.01:14
paulproteusSomething on w3c.org.  You could use XHTML2 and it would work.01:15
paulproteus(As I understand things.)01:15
dotLouhe did, and I tried switching it manually, but it didn't work.01:15
dotLouCC should provide people with xhtml valid code, simply to follow standards. it would only make sense.01:15
paulproteusI agree, and I'lll ask nathany about i1.01:16
bse__well, the rdf metadata we include is compatible with our license pages01:16
paulproteusit, even.01:16
dotLouthanks paulproteus.01:16

*** luisv has joined #cc02:18
skyfallerhey everyone... did the FSF or RMS ever officially release a statement that they are now OK with CC?02:19
skyfallerhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Culture_movement  implies that RMS still opposes CC02:20
skyfallerbut my understanding is that Lessig etc. have worked things out with them02:20
luisvI don't believe they have.02:26
luisvthough saying he 'opposes' it is... well, it is just very complex02:27
*** papyromancer has quit IRC02:37
*** papyromancer has joined #cc02:44
*** BobChao has joined #cc02:48
paulproteusLessig sure did say at the iSummit that he and RMS had worked things out.03:25
paulproteusI'm not sure if he said that in a more private chat or in his big speech thing.03:25
luisvwell, and it was mentioned in passing when one of the licenses was retired that CC would not offer new licenses which didn't at least guarantee distribution03:31
luisvwhich removes one of the big issues for FSF.03:31
gavinbakerright, but RMS has never really articulated (well) his problem with CC.03:33
gavinbakersure, there's his by-nc-nd standard03:34
gavinbakerbut why not support licenses that meet that standard, and denounce the rest?03:34
gavinbakerwhy denounce the organization and its licenses, and distance yourself from an allied movement?03:34
luisvbecause he doesn't see cc as allied03:34
luisvcc has portrayed itself as being about choice03:35
luisvand about being value-neutral03:35
luisvand the FSF is fundamentally not a value-neutral organization, or about choice03:35
luisvit is about defending/protecting/advancing a very specific conception of freedom03:35
luisvand if you're not doing the same thing (which CC deliberately is not) then you're not really on his team03:36
luisvor so goes the FSF thinking, more or less03:36
gavinbakeri always thought the choice rhetoric was more rhetoric than real03:39
gavinbakerthough i suppose you can also judge someone by their rhetoric03:39
luisvyeah03:39
rejonlarry's on FSF board03:40
rejonyah, I pinged mike about this too..I'm curious as well...not sure the strategy03:40
rejonwe are just so overloaded as of late03:40
luisvgavinbaker: the choice rhetoric is very real for some participants03:41
luisvthat was a real eye opener for me at the first iCommons summit03:41
luisvLarry clearly badly, badly wants it to be about something bigger, but feels as soon as he says that, it damages the movement for no real gains03:41
luisvbut lots of other people there seemed very genuine in it merely being a new licensing choice for artists, or (worse) just a source of free-beer music03:42
gavinbakerluisv, it has to be carefully managed, to be sure, but if it's permanently about "choice" and nothing else, it fails, both on its own grounds and at achieving its real goals03:42
luisvI tend to agree03:42
gavinbakerluisv, on the other hand, lots of people there were using non-free software03:43
luisvbut I can see how reasonable people would disagree about the tactics, even if the long-term goals are agreed upon03:43
gavinbakerit's clear as a movement that we lack a great deal of clarity and discipline03:43
gavinbakerwe're not assuming RMS is reasonable now, are we? ;)03:43
luisvhaha03:43
luisvoh, absolutely not03:43
luisvthe first time I ever met him we were in a screaming match within minutes ;)03:43
luisvforks were threatened, trademark actions were counter-threatened03:44
luisvit was all great fun03:44
poningrubeer?03:44
poningrusomeone say beer?03:44
luisvgavinbaker: the upside of lack of clarity/discipline is that you're a bigger tent03:44
luisvand more difficult to attack03:45
luisvit is very difficult to attack 'giving artists more choice'03:45
luisvit is more easy to attack 'knowledge should be shared'03:45
gavinbakerluisv: but people attack it anyway03:47
gavinbakerregardless, there was a time i was more worried about CC03:48
gavinbakermore clarity is coming03:48
gavinbakeroffing some of the non-standard licenses03:48
gavinbakersemi-committing to a standard for future licenses03:48
luisvyeah, wish that commitment had been a bit more high-profile03:48
gavinbakerworking to develop consensus in the areas of science and education03:48
luisvrejon: FWIW, I heard Lessig and Stallman got into some fairly heated arguments at the FSF public annual meeting in 2005 ;)03:49
gavinbakeras was discussed in one of the isummit panels, i really don't think we can have a definition of freedom -- yet -- for everything03:49
gavinbakerbut we are developing consensus around definitions for some things, which is really important03:49
gavinbakerboth on its own, and because it helps lead to developing consensus in other areas03:50
cchelpbotNew news from http://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/index.php?title=special:recentchanges&feed=rss: Marking Video <http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking_Video>03:52
gavinbakeri find access to knowledge to be a lot more important than e.g. new revenue models for marketing03:54
gavinbakercc seems to be moving its priorities to the right places03:54
gavinbakerif it started out well-meaning but a bit aimless, it's much more on the right track now03:54
luisvwell03:55
luisvthe lesson from free software is that the revenue models and the knowledge access are not incompatible03:56
luisvand projects/licenses which work to align those incentives are the most likely to succeed03:56
luisvso it isn't a bad idea to at least talk about and understand the business/revenue bits.03:57
gavinbakeras long as you care about the ethical goal03:59
gavinbakerand not just turning a buck03:59
luisvsure04:00
gavinbakerwell, i dunno. maybe the market's strong enough to punish the people who only care about turning a buck04:00
luisvand admittedly once you figure out the business model, or show even the faintest glimmer of that, you attract people who care only about the buck04:00
luisvbut those people mostly fail04:00
luisvand when they don't fail, they still create new knowledge04:00
gavinbakerright, but what good is the equivalent of a bunch of freeware04:01
luisvdepends on the licensing04:01
luisvif it is libre04:01
luisvthen it can be re-used, expanded upon, etc., regardless of the motivation of the creators04:01
luisvif it is just free-beer, or not-even-really-free-beer, then yeah, that is a problem04:02
gavinbakeri'd expect most of the only-buck-turners to use the most restrictive licenses04:02
luisvwhich, ahem, is an argument for not offering such licenses, as RMS and others have pointed out ;)04:02
cchelpbotNew news from http://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/index.php?title=special:recentchanges&feed=rss: Marking <http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking> || Marking Audio <http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking_Audio> || Marking Image <http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking_Image> || Marking Text <http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Marking_Text>04:02
luisv(since they aren't useful to the broader movement even if used by non-buck-turners)04:02
luisv(really... has an NC-ND licensed work, regardless of the intent of the author, made that world a much better place relative to the same work under a traditional copyright license?)04:04
gavinbakerit's just free beer04:05
luisvright.04:06
gavinbakeri'm not sure how important that is04:06
poningrugavinbaker: no dude it is important because of marketing04:07
poningrucc gets its word out everytime a known artist/teeny bopper uses its license04:07
poningrugranted that happening with the latter is slim to null04:08
luisvwhat is it marketing, exactly?04:08
luisvI'm not sure how much CC wins by being 'cool'04:08
luisvand I could even construct a cogent argument that use of CC by people who don't understand the underlying issues is damaging04:09
luisvsince later they'll realize what they've done is irrevocable and be pissed about it04:09
poningruluisv: I have to disagree with that because that would happen with every license no matter how free or nonfree04:10
luisvno, most other licenses are revocable.04:10
gavinbakeris the marketing they gain worth it?04:10
poningruand would argue that happens a lot more with proprietry license04:10
luisvand most other licenses operate under the fairly well-understood principle of 'I made it, I control it'04:10
luisvpeople know what they are getting into04:11
poningruluisv: uh...04:11
poningruwell I was under the impression that generally that was not the case with majority of bands that sign with major production studios04:11
luisvwhich is understood to reflect poorly on the studios, not on copyright or on the license.04:12
luisvwhen people are confused about CC, they don't blame it on the studios, they blame it on CC.04:12
poningruwell cc should education people then04:13
luisvright04:13
luisvwhich doesn't happen when a pop star uses nc-nd04:13
poningrubut that wont happen untill they inquire about it04:13
luisvah, yes04:13
poningruluisv: educating people will only work when they are mildly interested04:13
luisvjust like no one knew about free software until microsoft started using it04:13
luisvoh, wait ;)04:13
poningruluisv: no not until a killer app started using it04:14
poningrui.e apache on linux04:14
poningruand netscape04:14
luisvright, neither of which are under compromised/weak licenses04:14
luisvthe claim that 'we have to have NC-ND so that pop acts will use it and publicize the license' indicates a lack of faith that good artists will use BY-SA04:15
luisvand given that 5 years in, there has been no music/video 'killer app' under NC-ND suggests that the compromise approach doesn't work either04:16
luisv(4 years?)04:16
poningruno it just indicates a lack of faith in the community to accept our licenses at all04:16
poningruperhaps because of lack of knowledge04:17
poningruthey dont know about us at all04:17
poningruor miseducation:04:17
poningruGAAAH COMMUNIST!!!04:17
poningrumiseducation? yeah I dont know where that came from either04:17
*** kristallpirat has quit IRC04:18
poningruluisv: keep in mind though even in the software world there are open source software04:18
poningruwith similar requirements04:19
poningruthough not the exact same04:19
luisvwhich arguably (1) are mostly failures (can you name a single successful project with a license which is more restrictive than the Open Source Definition?) and (2) confuse both the message and the audience for the message04:20
luisvmost of us view those licenses as a problem to be solved, not something we want highly successful projects to use04:20
poningruok point true04:20
*** tvol has joined #CC04:23
luisvbut like I said earlier, eliminating those licenses means CC is more overtly ideological04:23
luisvwhich has its own problems04:23
poningruwhat I am arguing is that we just dont know what the vast majority of artists are willing to give up as their rights, so perhaps until we become popular enough and most artists know about us we should keep the free beer license04:23

jakinpaulproteus, the solution is to have a useful INSTALL file.  we run ./autogen.sh, which recreates the INSTALL file and 'make dist' will still distribute that INSTALL file22:54
cameronparkinsrejon: what was the final call on the name for the advocacy wiki page? participate correct?22:54
paulproteusI see now that make dist will distribute that file.  If we make a useful INSTALL file, will autogen.sh *not* overwrite it?22:55
paulproteusjakin, Also, I hear you think we should still GPL some parts.22:55

paulproteusLet's agree on the license stuff now, and ship 0.2 with the licensing fixed, and fight over autoconf for the follow-up release.22:57
jakinpaulproteus, i think we should think about before automatically jumping to "change everything to LGPL"22:57
paulproteusjakin, Sure, I'm definitely willing to think about it.22:57
paulproteusI want that people who write proprietary software be able to use this.22:57
paulproteusI also want the terms of distribution to be very clear to understand.22:57
paulproteusI think that the best way to do that is to make the whole package LGPL.22:58
jakinLGPL doesn't even make sense for the RDF licenses22:58
paulproteusI think that if we do some parts GPL, some parts LGPL, it makes life harder for downstream users without making anything actually better.22:58
paulproteusjakin, Well, they were already GPL'd. (-;22:58
jakinLGPL refers to "object code"22:58

paulproteusAt the GPLv3 conference, people asked Richard about the problems with using GPL(v2) for artwork, and he said, "There's no problem!"22:59

rejontvol: mike will prolly schedule meeting to go through wikifarming content in more depth...wiki integration...etc...fyi23:00
rejonjust you and him23:00
paulproteusIf the RDF files were pure data I'd say there are no copyrightable elements and that therefore we should state that we feel that way.23:00
rejonnext week23:00
tvolrejon ok23:00
paulproteusThey're not, though, because of the translations, so we should make sure downstream users have some freedoms.23:00
jakinthat was exactly my impression when they were first licensed23:00
paulproteusjakin, I'm confused - what precisely was the impression you had?23:01
jakinwell, i'm less concerned with RDF generated by a script than the rest of the code23:01
jakinlicensing machine-generated RDF23:01

paulproteusWell, it's machine-generated as a transform on copyrightable work - the natural language translation text.23:03
paulproteusAnyway, I'm confused, jakin.23:03
paulproteusWhat are you concerned by?  Let's work on those issues.23:03
jakinlet's forget the RDF...23:03
paulproteusSure, okay.23:03
jakinwe shouldn't be so quick to change the license without discussion by all those who hold the copyright on it23:04
paulproteusI totally agree, and apologize.23:04
paulproteusI'm an outsider to the project, and I mentioned this in the office, and rejon said it sounded reasonable, and in the excitement I forgot that you also contributed to it.23:04
cameronparkinstvol: can you move http://wiki.creativecommons.org/How_to_Participate off of the main page on the wikie and add http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Participate23:05
paulproteusjakin, So I think that proprietary software vendors should be able to link to liblicense.  How do you feel about that?23:06
tvolcameronparkins affirmativo - did you get admin from rejon?23:06
jakinyeah, i'm fine with LGPL, although I don't take it as a given that just because it's a library it should be LGPL.23:06
cameronparkinsnah not yet - im trying...rejon?23:06
paulproteusThat makes total sense, jakin.23:07
paulproteusAre there any files that shouldn't get LGPL'd, or is it okay to relicense the whole thing?23:07
paulproteusMy perspective on that question is that it's easier for everyone if there's only one license for any particular archive file.23:08
cameronparkinstvol: how do you dlete a wiki page23:08
cameronparkinsdelete*23:08
paulproteusFor example, it makes the life of a Debian maintainer way easier if a work is entirely under one license.23:08
paulproteusWell, "way" easier is comparative.  For an easy-to-package thing like this, it's a big difference.  For something enormous, then a note in debian/copyright is noise compared to the huge work of e.g. packaging OpenOffice.org and patching its build system etc.23:09
tvolcameronparkins you may need admin for that23:09
paulproteusjakin, What do you think about that?23:10
jakinpaulproteus, i'm not really convinced that it's easier23:10
paulproteusrejon, Please make me a bureaucrat on the CC wiki.23:10
paulproteusrejon, http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Special:Userrig23:11
paulproteushts23:11
paulproteusjakin, Having packaged things for Debian, I can say it is easier from that perspective.23:11
rejonthx23:11
jakini'd say just leave it however it is for now (LGPL or GPL)23:12

paulproteusjakin, Okay, right now the source repository has everything LGPL.23:12
paulproteusI'm sorry about making a change like that without asking you first, and I wish I had thought of it.23:13
jakinpaulproteus, it's cool now :-)23:13

jakincool, cool23:48
paulproteusApparently I released your modules stuff.23:48
paulproteusI hope that's okay....23:48
jakinhehe23:48
jakinyeah, so i completely rewrote how modules are handled and written all yesterday23:49
jakin:-P23:49
tannewtjakin, is it documented on the liblicense wiki page?23:49
jakintannewt, no23:49
paulproteusWell, it's still zero point whatever.23:50
*** kristallpirat has quit IRC23:50
tannewtjakin, alright, that should be done sometime23:50
jakinyeah, i'll take care of that23:50
tannewtjakin, sweet23:51
jakinmy biggest concern with the modules would be if writing a license could screw up a file :-/23:52
tannewttrue23:53
paulproteusSome tests demonstrating that doesn't happen would probably let you relax.23:53
jakinoh, i'm relaxed... i write perfect code23:53
paulproteusThat's a relief!23:55
tannewtjakin, I know23:55
