marex_v2hi, does someone here know if CC-BY would allow content to be redistributed/used/modified within a GPL project?14:53
nathanymarex_v2: do you mean code or assets?14:54
nathanynon-code assets are fine, i think (IANAL), given that you're not "linking" them (to engage the GPL), and so long as you provide attribution (fulfilling CC BY)14:55
marex_v2nathany: for example including CC-BY licensed icons in an GPL appliaction.14:55
nathanyI think that's fine, provided you give attribution for the icons14:56
nathanyi can't think of a specific example, but i'm sure we've seen that14:56
marex_v2and if the app includes icons that contain parts of CC-BY licensed icons it would work as well?14:57
nathanyso the icons are derivative works of CC BY icons?14:57
marex_v2yes14:57
nathanyso you still need to provide attribution in the derivative work but i don't know why it wouldn't14:58
nathany(remembering that i'm not a lawyer, we don't give legal advice, etc, etc)14:58
marex_v2so you could basically take an existing CC-BY icon, modify it and redistribute it under GPL (or what ever) as long as you give proper attribution?14:59
nathanyi think so14:59
marex_v2cool, then CC-BY would be perfect for me. thank you :)15:00

Matsoni got a question about cc licenses18:02
*** ereslibre has joined #cc18:02
Matsonlets say there is a public domain video, (this is a real case example I'm working with now)18:02
Matsona content creator take this PD video - slaps a header on the front with their name and website designation18:03
Matsonand then wants to release it under ö18:03
Matsonoops18:03
Matsonunder http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/18:03
nathanyftobia: i haven't forgotten about you, just trying to figure something out here before i lose my train of thought18:07
ftobianathany: no problem, i'm just working through the design of cc.license. any time you're done is cool.18:09
Bovinityftobia: you could also work on getting currybot loaded in here ;)18:09
Matsoni guess my question is - is there any problem with a person doing that?18:10
Matsontaking PD works and without really changing them releasing them under a CC license?18:11
Matsonit seems there is something wrong about it18:11
Sterendon't we have some PD specialist here ? greg-g maybe you have an answer18:12
*** currybot has joined #cc18:12

currybot(3) KALI MIRCHI KA MURGA (Chicken cubes cooked in curry flavored with black pepper)18:12
currybot(4) FRESH ASPARAGUS MEATBALL (Beef meatballs cooked with fresh asparagus, red onions, and tomato gravy)18:12
SterenMatson: sorry we should wake up everyone here to answer18:13
BovinityMatson: did the content creator create the PD video?18:13
greg-gMatson: there is now some discussion between 3 of us right now about it18:14
ftobiaMatson: do you mean legally wrong, or like, against best practices?18:15
Sterenarf, teh legal intern is not here ...18:15
greg-gI don't know the legal answer, but morally/ethically it is pretty lame.18:15
greg-gand yes "pretty lame" is my official answer ;)  and by official I mean "not binding" :)18:16
Bovinityfairly sure you cannot take someone elses PD work and relicense it. IANAL, AFAIK, WTFBBQ.18:16
ftobiaand i think the "taking works without really changing them" is an important point. whether or not adding a header makes it a derivative work is a question i don't know the answer to.18:16
greg-gBovinity: the only case I can think of is if someone transformed the video toa new format, they could relicense that I suppose18:17
greg-gfor instance, a certain university has scanned letters from the 1800s but is claiming copyright on those digital images, and the .txt file created from OCRing them.18:18
Bovinitypretty lame18:18
greg-gvery18:18
Bovinity"derivative work" meaning really eneds to be cleared up18:18
* greg-g nods18:19
Sterenyes, You license the artistic value you add to the work, so this ORC can be considered as "artistic" BUT the text is still under public domain18:19
greg-gSteren: yeah, I think Susan Crawford was contesting this university's copyright assertion on the text.18:19
SterenMatson: legally I think this behavior is OK. Sorry there isn't any legal guru here right now.18:21
greg-gis anyone attached to the "General" category on the wiki?  http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Category:General18:39
Bovinityseeing it has 5 pages... i'll go ahead here and say no18:40
greg-gthat is what I was thinking18:41
greg-ga "general" category seems too, well, general, to be useful.18:41

Matsonsorry, was gone18:51
greg-ghmmm, might be a good day for burritos18:51
Bovinitycurry is looking mediocre today18:51
Matsonso Bovinity - no, the video in this case was made by NASA18:51
Matsonftobia: legally and best case - really wanted to get some feedback18:51
Bovinitydoes he attribute nasa?18:52
Matsonbecause we're adding support for PD content in legaltorrents18:52
Matsonand the technically question is if PD and a license should be explusive choices or not18:52
Matsonexclusive18:52
Matsonwe'll it is *obvious* it is a NASA video - it has NASA graphics al over it18:53
Matsonin this case - the Creator is extremely careful about content licenses, and the current system *requires* him to put in a license - so he put in by-sa 3.018:53
Matsonthe real question we're mulling is this:  can content be both public domain and be released under a CC license18:54
greg-gahh, well, he then choose a license by random (in effect) and the chooser should allow PD18:54
SterenMatson: I just ping the legal intern, he will be here soon18:54
Matsonor does that make no sense18:54
SterenMatson: brian is comming18:54
*** brianrowe has joined #cc18:55
SterenMatson: can you explain again the problem for brianrowe18:55
Matsonpartly this is a question about how we want legaltorrents to work -- when a person "select" the PD checkbox we're adding now - does that mean we don't allow them to put in a license?18:55
Matsonsure18:55
Matsonhi18:55
Matsonthe question is about the overlap of public domain content and releasing work under a CC license18:56
brianroweMatson: hello18:56
MatsonI run Matson Systems - and we run legaltorrents.com18:56
Matsonwe're adding support for public domain content on the site18:56
Matsonup until now, we have *required* every piece of content to have a URL for a license before it is uploaded18:57
Matsontoday we have a strange case18:57
Matsonhttp://beta.legaltorrents.com/torrents/183-first-woman-in-space18:57
Matsona PD video, created by NASA that the content creator has republished18:57
Matsonadded a 2 second header at the front, with his name and website18:58
Matsonand posted it with http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/18:58
Matsonin this particular case, it's not an issue, because we have not deployed support for PD content - and this content creator would have listed in as PD if he had the choice18:59
Matsonbut it creates a question for future use and the overlap of CC licensed work and PD work18:59
brianrowematson:  If something is in the PD putting a license on it will have no effect.  only copyright owners (usually creators) can add license.  (legal disclaimer this chat is not legal advice from me or CC)18:59
Matsonif someone takes a PD video - slaps their name on it, and releases it - it is OK to release it under a CC licence?18:59
Matsonand by "ok" I mean both legallly and in the "best practice" sense19:00
Matsonbrianrowe: yes, just a friendly chat19:00
Matsonmostly I'm looking to get a better sense of the rules - so we can make he site function the best we can19:00
Matsonbut what if I make a whole movie, and include a PD short clip in it19:01
Matsonthe movie is still copyright by me, and can distribute under the license I choose19:01
brianrowematson:  by putting a license on you are inherently claiming to have the right to grant that license. It causes a legal confusion.  definitely not a best practice.19:02
Matsonin this particular case, dose slapping a 2 second header on the front of a 5 minute PD video clip make it something a new content creator can say is "thiers"?19:02
Matsonok, well, then that definately helps19:03
Matsonif a content creator selects the "This work is in the Public Domain" - then we should *not* allow them to also put any kind of license on it19:03
Matsonie, make them exclusive19:04
*** stevel has quit IRC19:04
brianroweyes, it should be PD or a license not both19:04
*** stevel has joined #cc19:05
Matsonthanks19:05
*** stevel has quit IRC19:06
brianroweon adding a header, this probly does not create a new work.  you need to do something creative to gain a new work.  (this is up for debate some companies claim copyright in little things like indexes and page numbers)19:09
brianroweadding subtitles or commenary on the other hand may create a new work where you have copyright at least in the added elements.  Hope that helps.  GL it looks like a great project19:11
Matsonthank you19:11

greg-gas soon as it notices a change to the website it emails cc-staff-curry@ the menu22:31
nkinkadeI'm more in favor of getting rid of the currybot and simply having it generate an RSS feed and to drop it somewhere in the webroot.22:32
nkinkadeThe currybot is highly redundant, when multiple people have it list one after the other.22:33
greg-gnkinkade: this is true22:33
nkinkadeBut I don't really care one way or the other because I rarely get the curry from Mehfil, and I've yet to use the currybot.22:34
nkinkadeBut everyone seems to have fun with it, so it seems worth having just for the sake of fun and laughs.22:35
