luisvnah, they'll just go start something else up ;)11:54
BrianHPinteresting side-note: apparently even if copyright has lapsed in country-of-origin, you can still file commonlaw copyright claims in the US (assuming the work was published before 1972). So jurisdiction is fuzzy.11:54
paulproteusluisv, Probably better with a projector11:54
paulproteusHmm, I have access to a project for five minutes during my talk...11:54
luisvpaulproteus: certainly best with a projector11:54
paulproteus*a projector*11:55
luisvBrianHP: well, and you've got the problem of the jurisdiction of the author v. the jurisdiction of the user11:55
rejonhttp://www.mercurynews.com/businessheadlines/ci_962081911:55
luisv(with the practical reality that most consumer/users are effectively judgment-proof, esp. in a trans-jurisdiction context)11:55
BrianHPluisv: true. also, it mostly relates to sound recordings.11:55
BrianHPbut regardless, it implies that "jurisdiction" isn't quite so clear-cut as we'd like it to be. but not sure if that's fixable on any level other than the legislative.11:57
luisvonce you're talking about jurisdiction in that way the only level that can fix it is UN-level11:58
luisvwhich is one of the reasons I prefer the GPL-style no-porting approach11:58
paulproteusand loathes11:58
*** nathany has joined #cc11:58
luisvporting the licenses smells of lawyers trying to fix a theoretical problem that is unfixable11:58
luisvbut I've ranted about that before ;)11:58
paulproteusluisv, That's what lawyers do!11:59
* paulproteus hides11:59
luisvpaulproteus: which is why we should all be glad that RMS is not a lawyer11:59
BrianHPrant and flap our hands ineffectually? why yes, it's what you learn 1L year, right after torts.11:59
nathanyftobia: greg-g: Steren: et al: can you categorize live blog posts in the "techsummit" category?11:59
nathanylol11:59
luisvand that one of his split personalities is very pragmatic11:59
ftobianathany: sure thing12:00
luisvI mean, I love Larry and all12:00
luisvbut the sooner CC is run and dominated by content producers, rather than lawyers, the better for everyone12:00
luisv(he knows this, of course)12:00
mlinksva_i agree with everything luisv says, though i haven't read any of this.  is that deniability?12:00

rejoni agree with luisv: preaching to the choir luisv...speak up more!12:01
BrianHPsanity check for my benefit, if y'all don't mind: basically css-style divs for content, not just form?12:01
luisvrejon: sure... just give me a job :)12:01
paulproteusBrianHP, Well, we'll see if CSS is enough (-:12:01
rejonluisv: i've tried, but you weren't done with law school!12:01
* paulproteus secretly knows the answer12:01
luisvBrianHP: it's not quite content12:01

luisvmlinksva_: the lawyers you've talked with today are a distinctly unusual minority12:12

mecrediswell maybe not ARR13:28
paulproteusThough this goes back to what JoiIto was saying at the start.13:28
mecredisyes13:28
mecrediswhich was well put13:28
*** rejon has joined #cc13:29
paulproteusHey, I've made Custom Panel!13:29
hdworakone pastes an URL to the work, the validator downloads the URL and starts analysing it; when it spots a URL to the license inside; does it start to analyse the license URL itself (by downloading it and analysing it contents) or does it simply look-up whether it matches predefined cc's licenses URLs or not; if it matches, it displays information about the particular license, but does not retrieve it in order to do it - the information about various license13:29
hdworakan URL = a URL13:29
paulproteushdworak, Looks it up in a local pile of RDF files13:29
mecredishow does XMP <=> RDFAa ?13:30
mecredisthat question might be a category mistake13:30
*** ereslibre_laptop has quit IRC13:30
paulproteusThey're both ways of encoding RDF.13:30
djdevvydevum, I think XMP expresses RDF triples in RDF/XML ... is that right?13:30
hdworakRDFa is for XHTML13:30
paulproteusThat's exactly the point I should have tried to make in my talk - liblicense reads from files what slick browsers read from the web.13:30
luisvXMP is in-file, right?13:30
hdworakRDFa can be translated to RDF triples, too13:31
paulproteusluisv, Normally, yes.13:31
rejonthat xmp toolkit's bsd license allowed exempi to happen which allowed liblicense to happen...FYI13:31
paulproteusWell, liblicense is LGPL (-;13:31
hdworakpaulproteus: therefore what happens if someone points out to a license URL http://www.example.com/mylicense.rdf13:31
paulproteusAnd it dlopen()s exempi so it doesn't even have to be license-compatible with exempi.13:32
*** nathany has quit IRC13:32
paulproteushdworak, One option is forget it for now, it's not a normal CC license URI at least.13:32
mecredisyeah13:33
mecredisthat makes sense13:33
djdevvydev#hdworak, the cc: namespace defines the permits/allows "predicate" and a bunch of "objects" for what can be permitted13:33
djdevvydevconceivably this could be the basis of a general purpose license description language13:33
djdevvydevbut who knows if it would get adopted outside of cc13:33
hdworakokay, if we limit the scope of the analysis to cc's licenses only, should we parse local RDFs or can we retrieve the license data from other means like Python dictionaries, .txt or whatever? (which one of these should be easier?)13:34
paulproteusParse the local RDFs for now; we're working on making a nicer Python API for getting CC license info out of our RDF files.13:34
hdworakcf. "License properties are used by Creative Commons itself to define the authoritative specifications of the licenses we offer. Other organizations are free to use these components for describing their own licenses. Such licenses, although related to Creative Commons licenses, would not themselves be Creative Commons licenses nor would they be endorsed necessarily by Creative Commons."13:34
paulproteus(That API is called cc.license and ftobia will work on it eventually)13:35
djdevvydevwell, I think CC won't change a given license without issuing a new URL for it, right?13:35
paulproteusdjdevvydev, That's right13:35
BrianHPCompare birds with what was in the lower-left of the last slide deck.13:35
paulproteusThe legal code is fixed, typos and all.13:35
djdevvydevso there's not really any need to have a generalized parsing engine for cC licenses really13:35
djdevvydevjust hard-code behavior based on the URL13:35
djdevvydev(that's what I'd do for now, anyway)13:35
paulproteusdjdevvydev, Well, we add translations, though.13:35
hdworakok, what happens when 4.0 shows up? one manually adds its support to the validator?13:35
paulproteushdworak, No, hold up a sec13:36
paulproteusCC publishes RDF files for each license.13:36
paulproteusWe keep them up to date.13:36
mlinksva_compuserve.com, unlimited internet for $17.95/month, two months free!13:37
mecredisWhat's a torrent?13:37
paulproteusThe validator will pull its info on which URLs are current, and what they mean, from there.13:37
paulproteusfrom lessig import britney_spears_at_any_price13:38
hdworakwhen someone takes cc's officiallicenseinfo.rdf and uploads THIS FILE to example.com/mylicense.pdf and then points out (as XHTML's license) to http://example.com/mylicense.rdf: 1) does the validator bother? 2) is this a legal mean to release the work under cc's license?13:38
paulproteushdworak, Since we keep them up to date it a cron job that does "svn update" or "git pull" will keep those RDF files up to date for you.13:38
wseltzerhe means, of course, that he downloaded some songs 3+ years ago...13:38
mecredisWolf Eyes got tagged as Christian Rap for me very recently13:38
paulproteus(is that the statute of limitations or something?)13:38
BrianHPof course.13:38
wseltzeryes :)13:38
paulproteuswseltzer, OH, very good to know (-:13:39
paulproteushdworak, They won't do that, basically.  (1) I think the validator shouldn't bother, and (2) Sure, it's valid, but it's pretty weird.13:39
paulproteusI've had 2h of sleep so I might be slightly less sane than usual.13:40
hdworakok, so back to the official cc's URLs, is there any tool to be used to facilate this RDF parsing (of license files NOT work files) - any tool by cc maybe?13:40
paulproteusDeCSS music is "illegal files"?13:41
paulproteushdworak, Yes, there's a half-baked cc.license module in our git.13:41
*** sama has joined #cc13:41
rejonchange pitch of voice randomly13:41
paulproteusYou can use it for now, but it's pretty half-baked.  I think it's best to try to use it where possible, but if you need to pull info from the RDF files yourself just do that; there's a git repository for them.13:42
hdworakok, thank you13:43
luisv(huh, I'd never considered the statute of limitations on illegal file downloading)13:43
luisv(lawyers++)13:43
hdworakhow to express a dual-license in RDFa?13:43
paulproteus(that's not something you'll hear from luisv very often)13:43
paulproteushdworak, Just express two license attributes.13:43
hdworakput two rel="license" links or cc:morePermission13:44

luisvso much education to be done17:09
wseltzerbreak the frame!17:10
BrianHPYeah, but how anarchistic do you want to be?17:10
luisvthe tech, without the education, doesn't do as much17:10
luisvBrianHP: well, not so much the anarchy bits, but just that it seems like lots of people use CC (and to a lesser extent GPL) without really grokking the issues17:10
luisvhence the problems with people using flickr stuff crazily, etc.17:10
tim_hwanglots of definition problems17:11
luisvwseltzer: it's not a useful frame breaking; doesn't illuminate, I don't think17:11
luisvjust complains17:11
BrianHPI hear you. But swing it the opposite direction. Maybe show that the tech is SO FAR beyond the scope of extant law that we NEED new education.17:11

luisvsharp as a butter knife17:19

BrianHPwell, Muzak, right?17:21
luisv(it isn't being sold to the end user (the person on hold))17:21
luisvbut yeah, can be sold to the company17:21
BrianHPIs it that there's value SOMEWHERE in the chain of commerce?17:21
luisvbut if you define 'commercial' as 'displacing a product that is sold' you're pretty broad17:21

luisvrejon: all will die; they are too far ahead of their time17:41
BrianHPIt sounds like we're shrinking the universe of "what registries can do" down to almost nothing.17:41
rejonhere is my summary: kill copyright, openlibrary.org will survive over next 5 years, the web *is* a registry, use RDFa/ccREL17:42
rejon(oh wait, that is from my brain in a personal capacity)17:42
luisvweb_is_a_registry++17:42
BrianHPSo, what, just add in an rdf: function to google?17:42
luisvhehe17:42
BrianHP(e.g. google search for rdf:by-sa-na)17:43
luisvrdf:dc:license:by-sa-na?17:43
rejonwell, yahoo's searchmonkey supports RDFa...talking with google and hopefully will get RDFa support added17:43
luisv(you don't have nearly enough :s, I know that)17:43
mlinksva_web_is_a_registry++17:43
luisvrejon: reaaaally?17:43
JoiItohaven't we discussed the possibility of creating front-ends for the copyright office?17:43
luisvmlinksva_: so, wait17:43
rejonbut...the idea is to have good solid standard, let the market solve the rest...play the time game, invest in countries with liberal copyright laws17:43
rejonor rather lax enforcement17:44
BrianHPwell, while the end result of those two (liberal law/lax enforcement) is the same, it gets troubling when you cross international borders.17:44
rejonsolve the rest with lots of guidance ;)17:44
luisvBrianHP: think big17:44
*** nathany has quit IRC17:44
luisvwe're better at this than your puny national governments ;)17:44
BrianHPDon't mind me, IJAL (who's been reading too much about commonlaw copyright, which is going to hang over us, barring statutory movement, until 2067 -- yeesh)17:45
luisvmlinksva_: but yeah, I thought you were pro-specialized-registry?17:45
rejonluisv: yes (way above)17:46
luisvrejon: because I really, really want to search more than flickr when I'm looking for pictures for my blog17:46
mlinksva_luisv: the web is made of specialized proto-registries (in part)17:46
luisv(needless to say, looking for CC-BY or CC-SA)17:47
rejoneach domain is a proto-registry...should just have the directy index visible for each site17:47
luisvlgonze is a troublemaker ;)17:48
rejonluisv: try the http://images.yahoo.com (searched flickr)...want to get/expose cc licensing switches on that17:48
rejonyah, lgonze is great17:48
tim_hwangnice17:48
luisvrejon: w/out cc licensing switch, not worth it17:48
tim_hwangstraight shot17:49

rejoncc license + another agreement (obviously ppl. getting it wrong, which is also a problem)17:51
BrianHPluisv: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CCPlus17:51
rejonlook at the graphic on the top17:51
rejonbasically dual licensing17:51
rejonor multiple-licensing ;)17:51
luisvhrm17:53
stevelinteresting17:53
luisvmaybe I'm confusing it with cczero17:53
luisvwhich I'm also not clear on17:53
BrianHPproliferation of various CC's seem to push back against their wide adoption17:53
BrianHPthis is suppsed to be facially clear, right?17:53
luisvit has never been facially clear ;)17:54
paulproteusluisv, Feel free to talk to me about CC+ and CC0, but they're "fairly straightforward".17:54
tim_hwangyeah, proliferation is the big danger17:54
BrianHPBut that was the point of the friendly generator at cc.org17:54
rejonBrianHP: hopefully its better than without CC ;) but yes, still hard for many to explain even simple CC 6 licenses17:55
BrianHPIt seems like the largest problem is that we can have a full-day conference and still ask questions like "is noncommercial licensing even good?" how is this going to be widely adopted without having basic answers to these questions?17:55
luisvwell17:56
paulproteusBrianHP, "It's easy"17:56
BrianHP(which I guess goes back to luisv's old education point.17:56
paulproteusThe people who like NC licensing can do it, and the ones who don't like it can just not use it.17:57
luisvwell, and I think to Joi's point at the very, very beginning of separating the technical and the advocacy17:57
paulproteusTa-da, we satisfy everyone by letting them satisfy themselves.17:57
paulproteusluisv, Totally.17:57
luisvthis whole discussion might be more useful if the advocacy/philosophy stuff were ruled out of bounds17:57
paulproteusZing.17:57
luisvwe need to solve/fix metadata, regardless of whether or not we have NC or not NC or whatever17:57
paulproteusPrecisely.17:57
rejonyet17:58
rejon;)17:58
wseltzerand we're not really talking about metadata17:58
luisvnever will17:58
luisvit is implicit17:58
rejonopensource zero17:58
luisvthe + is implicit in GPL17:58
paulproteusluisv, I disagree17:58
paulproteusIt's definitely *not* implicit in the Linux kernel, for example.17:58
mlinksva_paulproteus: great point17:59
luisvif there is a single copyright holder, the + is implicit. If there is no single copyright holder, then '+' is problematic anyway17:59
luisvunless you have reached some sort of agreement between the copyright holders... in which case you've basically got a single copyright holder17:59
JoiItoThe definition in the license: "You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3 above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation. The exchange of the Work for other copyrighted works by means of digital file-sharing or otherwise shall not be considered to be intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, provided th17:59
JoiItoere is no payment of any monetary compensation in connection with the exchange of copyrighted works."17:59
JoiItoisn't THAT uncertain... I think it's more what the community feels is "exploitation" I think...17:59
wseltzera bit of noodling on metadata: is there interest in a way to tag works with statements about their copyright status, and attributions of those statements?17:59
JoiItoanyway, we should have a separate conference on NC ;-)18:00
paulproteuslol, JoiIto!18:00
paulproteusCharge for attendance this time.18:00
luisvwseltzer: XMP + RDF/a?18:00
