revilhi there!! I want to find the address in memory that a function ends (in compile time.). How can I do that? If not in ANSI C then with some gcc-specific directive16:17
luisvwrong channel :)16:17
luisvthis is creative commons, not c compiler16:18
luisv:)16:18
revilIs it advised to use the address that the next function starts mabe?16:19
revilluisv, that means it is not part of the 'vanilla' compiler?16:20
luisvrevil: that means you are asking the wrong people16:20
reviloh.. I now see it16:20
revilsorry there..16:21
luisvno problem16:21
luisvwish I could point you to the right place, good luck with that16:21
revilno need.. That's my responsibility.16:22

rillianhi17:49
rillianis the new CC+ stuff machinable? or is it just a branded link?17:49
gavinbakerrillian, iirc there's metadata for it17:51
gavinbakeri think it's called morerights17:51
gavinbakerif there's info on the web, it's at wiki.cc.o17:51
rillianyeah I was digging there17:51
rillianlight on the technical details17:52
gavinbakeri really think it's just a URL17:52
gavinbakerthere's just one field, which is either not set or a URL to point to info about more rights17:53
rilliancongrats on meeting your fundraising target btw!17:56
freakofmimsyYes, congratulations everybody.17:57
freakofmimsyfunnily enough, in november, it wasn't looking very achievable.17:57
bov:)17:59
gavinbakerfreakofmimsy: i remember that as well17:59
*** bov is now known as bovinity17:59
gavinbakeri think larry always keeps some cards in his deck just in case17:59
nkinkaderillian: gavinbaker: re the CC+ stuff.  I think the hope is that it will all be machine readable.  the main part, i believe, is as you say a URL.  that URL should be marked up with RDF(a) as something like cc:morePermissions.  one would hope that the URL at the other end would in turn have RDF(a) describing itself, but that may be out of the hands of CC.18:04
*** hub has quit IRC18:04
rilliannkinkade: I agree the current spec has room for a machinable license18:05
bovinitythat's the idea18:05
rillianbut I think someone (ideally cc) should offer some specific ones18:05
rilliannot everyone would want that18:05
bovinitycc+ isn't a license though18:05
nkinkaderillian: from what i understand the URL could point to another non-CC license, for example, and that license may or may not have machine readable data.   but clearly CC would like to see that.18:06
rillianthe use case would be: CC aware authoring software can currently tell you if you're CC-compatible, and sometimes even generate your attribution credits for you.18:06
nkinkadeRight.  CC+ isn't a license, but a way of marking a CC license in a machine readable way that indicates that some other terms apply, another additional license for example.18:07
rillianThe next step would be to be able to calculate the licensing fees for CC+ licensed content to match whatever terms you've specified for your work18:07
rillianand you could then click 'buy' and it would paypal everyone, for example.18:07
rillianthat's what I mean by a machinable license infrastructure18:07
rilliannot everyone will go for that, obviously, but it would already work for outfits like magnatune18:08
nkinkaderillian: I have seen some email to that effect ... regarding the "buy" link type of thing.18:08
rillianright, a 'buy' button is probably a better way to describe it18:09
rillianright now, the Rhythmbox audio player can show you the magnatune and jamendo catalogs, and play stuff out of them18:09
rillianand there's a big 'buy' button18:10
nkinkadebut to be honest, even though I work at CC it's all still somewhat unclear to me as well.18:10
rillianbut it just takes you to the website where you have to fill out all the forms like usual18:10
nkinkadeAnd this isn't necessarily because it's unclear, but more because I haven't been in on the core discussions and formulation of what precisely CC+ is. :)18:10
rillianit's not parity with the iTunes store, where you can have your account on file and just do it in one click18:10
rilliannkinkade: and because the announcement doesn't make it clear what we should be getting behind :)18:11
nkinkaderillian: I guess ultimately the sky is the limit.  If you can dream up a use case, then surely someone could implement it.  Whether it gets used is another question. :)18:11
nkinkaderillian: Well, I'd say keep you eyes on the CC blog.  I know I will be. :)18:12
rillian:)18:12
nkinkaderillian: I think that some of the grittier and finer aspects of CC+ are still be hashed out, though the basic framework seems to be established, which is key.18:12
nkinkades/still be/still being/18:13
rillianfair enough18:15
gavinbakeri can't imagine the basic format going beyond what it is now18:15
gavinbakeri.e. any later extensions would be optional18:16
gavinbakerbecause people will have many different ways of the extra licensing18:16
gavinbakeryou could set the value to an email address, for instance18:16
gavinbakerin other words, if you want to license this, email me18:16
rilliangavinbaker: well, it would be new licenses, or an RDFa scheme for describing license terms and payment info, that would live at the end of the CC+ url18:17
rillianwhether that goes under the CC+ brand or not I couldn't say18:17
nkinkadegavinbaker:  I think you're right.18:17
gavinbakerrillian: i think you'll find that commercial licensing is so specialized that it won't be possible to standardize very much18:17
rilliancreative commons is about lowering the costs of working with digital media18:18
gavinbakerand, frankly, i kind of question how much CC ought to support it18:18
gavinbakervs. focusing on supporting CC's own licenses18:19
rillianof course most commercial licensing is too complex, and the people involved wouldn't in interested in automated licensing this decade18:19
rillianbut I think if you gave a standard way for ordinary people to sell exceptions to their NC clause, people would use it18:19
rilliangiven them a boilerplate commercial license, and enough info a 'buy' button can work18:20
gavinbakerrillian: i think that's where lulu comes in :p18:20
rilliando you see what I'm talking about?18:20
*** tvol has joined #CC18:21
rillianguess not :(18:21
gavinbakerit'll be some other service that handles the terms & transaction, and the CC license can just point there18:21
gavinbakeri really don't see the need to standardize more than that18:21
gavinbakerespecially since i foresee uptake being very little18:21
gavinbakerand since it gets away from the goal of CC to increase user freedom18:22
gavinbakerextending CC+ just makes it easy for some people who decline to give me freedoms to make some money18:22
gavinbakerwhich is not necessarily bad, but it's definitely not a core goal of CC18:22
gavinbakerimho, one of the more useful potential uses for CC+ is to point to an alternative open license18:23
gavinbakeras in, "you can use this under cc by-sa or gnu fdl"18:23
rillianIsn't declining to give people freedoms to make some money the whole point of the nc clause?18:24
rillianbut I see you point18:24
paulproteusgavinbaker, BTW you imagine someone doing CC by-sa + CC+ for non-sa or non-by reproductions.18:49
gavinbakeris that a question?18:50
paulproteusgavinbaker, BTW you *can* imagine someone doing CC by-sa + CC+ for non-sa or non-by reproductions.18:50
paulproteusNot a question, but a statement with a typo.18:50
gavinbakerpaulproteus, that seems less likely than getting around the NC clause, but it could happen18:52
nkinkadepaulproteus: are you suggesting that it's conceivable that someone would apply a by-sa + CC+ non-sa?  it's a wonderful and crazy world.18:57
paulproteusnkinkade, Yes - I'm sure e.g. SJ might do that.18:57
paulproteusHeck, I might!18:57
nkinkadepaulproteus: then what is the difference between that and a simple BY license?18:59
paulproteusnkinkade, No, I mean CC+ to offer to sell non-SA.18:59
gavinbakerpaulproteus: ... why not just offer it under by?19:00
nkinkadepaulproteus: ah. now that makes sense.19:00
paulproteusgavinbaker, To make money fast!19:00
nkinkadegavinbaker: that is what i was asking.  but i see what he means now.19:00
*** luisv is now known as lu|lunch19:01
* paulproteus grins19:01
paulproteusYou west coasters are stuck in the past!19:01
paulproteusIt's already two hours past lunchtime here.19:02
paulproteusAlthough at this rate I'll be eating at the same time as you.19:02
nkinkadei was actually pondering timezones this morning.  it blows my mind that i could step across an imaginary line and suddenly be 24 hours in the past or future by wall time.19:04
paulproteusThe alternative is to walk a two miles one direction and move the wallclock time by a minute.19:05
paulproteusWell, probably like 20 seconds.19:05
gavinbakerpaulproteus: the alternative is to use the same time everywhere19:05
paulproteusI think that might be more fun, but it'd be less scalable I suppose.19:05
gavinbakerbut apparently some people don't like going to work at 3pm19:06
paulproteusgavinbaker, Puh-lease, we have to maintain the relative correctness of noon everywhere!19:06
gavinbakerwhen the sun is coming up19:06
