 Prior art isn't an issue, since it's not patented.

I meant that thing that makes copyright applicable - a modicum of
originality. The vast majority of our web site content is simply not
original, because of the nature of the web site, which is to describe the
established facts regarding Debian. These facts are pre-existent, and
editors mostly can't claim the exclusive right (copyright) on them.
There's a handful of essay-like materials where there's significant added
value in the text, and the non-content stuff like code and design,
but the copyrightability of everything else to the editor of the web site
is at least moot.

 In any event, to resolve this issue completely all that we need is 1)
 a GPG signed email from every contributor saying that they either
 assign copyright of their contributions to SPI or give SPI a
 non-exclusive royalte-free license to do with the copyright work as
 they see fit 2) a directive from the DPL to SPI to license the work
 under GPL (or MIT/Expat or whatever -www decides.)
 
 #1 should probably be made a part of the proceedure that is followed
 when you get commit access to the cvs, and #2 is simply a matter of
 e-mailing leader@ once -www decides which licence.

Yeah.

  And considering a lot of other people have infinite more
  understading of Copyright issues, what should we do if we can't

 If for some reason we can't find a contributor (or a contributor has
 fallen off the face of the planet) we should indicate as such and
 probably just assume that they meant to give us free reign. If they
 decide not to license it appropriately, then we should rip whatever it
 is out of the webpage and rewrite it.

I proposed in the bug report the following (in addition to what Don
suggested):

- post to d-a that the license is going to change in X months and that
  contributors are going to be contacted. Provide pointers to anyone feels he
  should be contacted and isn't

- put a News item in the website explaining that the license change will be
  introduced in X months and do the same as with the e-mail

After X months have gone through, the contributor's GPG emails have been
collected, and SPI has been contacted and hold up a meeting clearing the way,
change licence.wml as appropiate, add a *new* News item and e-mail d-a again.

That way we are acting on good faith and nobody would have a reason to claim
that the license change was introduced without they knowing it.

 We probably should also come up with a set of guidelines for
 contributors so that we avoid accidentally ending up with work not
 written by a contributor in the website too. (Or at least, have such
 work be clearly marked.)

Absolutely true. The place for that is
www.debian.org/devel/website/guidelines or something similar. Anyone wants to
start writting it up?

copyright of their contributions to SPI or relicense it. :)


 I specifically do not trust the SPI enough to allow them to
  relicense my work in the future.

Would you allow the Debian WWW Team (or a DPL delegate for
that matter) to relicense your work under a DFSG compatible license?
Or, would you dual-license it GPLv2 and MIT/Expat?  That would make
our work easier.

Anyway, you are a WWW contributor easy to contact to ask
for arrangements about licensing issues, so I think we just have
to wait a little bit until Don propose the game plan before we
start working on this.

Bonjour très cher  Mr,
 
Comment allez vous ? Bien je le pense !
 
Je m'excuse de cette intrusion mais je viens par ce mail vous confier un sujet 
qui m'est cher et confidentiel.
 
Tout d'abord j'ai eu après de longues prières le temps de réfléchir avant de 
vous confier cette affaire.J'ai une proposition à vous faire; de cet fait je 
tiens à vous expliquer la nature de mon problème.
 
Je ne tiens pas franchement à Obtenir une aide sur condition ni à vous obliger 
à m'aider pour une certaine ou quelconque raison. Je tiens à vous dire que rien 
ne vous oblige à honorer cette affaire, mais si Dieu réalise notre voeux et que 
vous nous aidiez à régler notre problème vous nous aurez sauvés.
 
Je me Nomme Mlle Massandie Diaby Je suis la fille de Mr Et Mme Diaby tous deux 
Sierra léonais mais qui ne sont aujourd'hui malheureusement plus de ce monde. 
Je suis orpheline et je suis en compagnie de mon jeune frère âgé de 12ans .
 
Mon père était un honorable Marchant de Diamant Brut récolté sur des mines 
extractions de Notre pays la Sierra Léone et actionnait aussi dans le commerce 
du café et du Cacao sur la zone de L'Afrique de l'ouest .
 
Ma mère est décédée lorsque j'avais seulement 11 ans à la naissance de mon 
jeune frère depuis nous avons grandi spécialement avec notre père jusqu'a 
l'arrivée de la guerre en Sierra Léone. A la suite de nombreuses escapades nous 
nous sommes réfugiés dans la province de Falaba aux frontières de la Guinée 
Conakry.
 
Mon père fut grièvement blessé et mourut dans la nuit du Samedi 09 Février 2002 
lors d'une attaque dans notre quartier, Cette nuit là, il m'a expliqué qu'il a 
déposé la somme de  USD  $13.800.000  (Treize millions, huit cent milles 
Dollars Américains) en liquide; qu'il avait pris la précaution de les garder 
dans une boîte qu'il a confié à une agence de sécurité et m'avait nommée 
Héritière. Il déposa la boîte en tant que biens de valeurs et trésors familiaux 
et garda le privilège du secret de son contenu pour des raisons de sécurité et 
pour ne pas attirer l'attention des personnes malveillantes qui seront prêtes à 
nous faire du mal pour obtenir ses fonds.
 
De ce fait l'agence de sécurité en question ne connaît pas le contenu de la 
boîte.
 
Mon père m'indiqua un lieu secret que nous avions ensemble où j'ai trouvé une 
enveloppe dans laquelle il a tout expliqué et où j'ai eu les documents de dépôt 
de la boîte en plus de l'adresse de l'agence de sécurité où la boîte fut 
déposée ici en Côte D'Ivoire .
 
 Je me suis enfui vers la Guinée avec mon frère âgé de 12 ans seulement. Nous 
nous y sommes cachés pendant deux ans pour nous faire oublier ,pour notre 
propre sécurité car ceux qui avaient attaqué notre village était à notre 
recherche .
 
J'ai 24 ans et je vis Actuellement en Côte D'Ivoire à Abidjan avec mon jeune 
frère  depuis le 05 Juillet 2004 dans la volonté de retirer ma boîte et son 
contenu pour les investir. Mais dès notre arrivée ici il y a eu la crise et 
l'agence de sécurité en question nous a informé que notre colis a accumulé des 
frais pour sa garde que nous devions régler avant le retrait de la boîte. Mais 
nous n'avions plus d'argent pour régler ces frais car nous en avions juste 
assez pour survivre , en plus ce que nous avions  n'atteignaient pas les frais 
de l'agence .
 
Je nécessite une aide de votre part pour m'aider à retirer notre boîte de cette 
agence et mettre nos fonds en sécurité .Ensuite nous aider à venir vous 
rejoindre chez vous dans votre pays pour nous aider à les investir .Parce que 
nous sommes seuls et en difficultés financières donc j'ai besoin de votre 
soutien moral et de votre aide.
 
Je vous demande Votre humble compréhension et votre sagesse, pour nous aider à 
sortir de notre problème car Franchement je vous demande cette aide avec toute 
la peur et certains doutes pour cette raison je voudrais que vous me répondiez 
sincèrement et que vous me dites si vous serrez dans la possibilité de nous 
aider à retirer notre colis avec votre sincérité et votre honnêteté.
 
J'attends de vous relire .mais je ne prendrais pas mal une réponse négative et 
je comprendrais très bien, aussi l'offre de votre aide du fond du coeur.
 
Alors je tiens à vous poser à ceci peu de questions :
 
 1-) Pouvez nous aider sincèrement de façon franche et honnête à sortir de 
notre problème en tant que votre frère et soeur ? 
 
 2-) Puis je vous faire totalement confiance et avoir votre discrétion pour la 
sécurité de notre boîte et son contenu ?
 
3-)Combien de pourcentage sera convenable pour vous, pour vos efforts et 
votre aide envers nous une fois que la boîte sera en votre possession ?
 
 S'il vous plaît considérez ceci et donnez nous une réponse franche et sincère 
.aider nous en tant que votre frère et soeur parce que nous sommes orphelins et 
nous n'avons plus personne sur cette terre.
 
 Que Dieu vous bénisse.
J'attends de vous relire.
 
 
 Mlle Massandie Diaby

The debian-www list is really the wrong place to ask that question.
For one, because the wiki is not managed by the debian-www team.
And also because someone from the DebianEdu community must have thought it 
a good idea to subscribe to these changes, so it is also up to the

Yeah, this is precisely why I think giving an unrestrictive license to
SPI acting at the direction of Debian should be an option; some people
want to keep their copyrights. [I personally don't care much, so long
as at the end of the day, I can do with my work what I wish.]

 I specifically do not trust the SPI enough to allow them to
 relicense my work in the future.

This sort of relicensing should be done at the direction of Debian; we
could even write up the license assignment so this was required. Plus,
the worst that could happen is the work would become closer to PD; it
wouldn't be capable of going backwards in freedom granted.

Would such a license be acceptable to you?

 * Contributions must be DFSG compatible

 * You can either assign your copyright to SPI or allow the Debian
   WWW Team to relicense your work under a compatible DFSG license
   to keep the content of the site consistent.

 * You don't need to have write access to WWW repository to contribute

 * Everybody that contributes to the WWW repository must sent a GPG
   signed mail informing about copyright details and license preferences
   of the specific piece of information being contributed, it must abide
   to the above points.

 * You don't need to be a DD to have write access to the WWW repository

 * Everybody with write access to the WWW repository must sent a GPG
   signed mail informing about copyright details and license preferences
   for all further work identified under the VCS account.

 * Everybody with write access to the WWW repository must check with
   patch-providers and other sources of information about the copyright

   for a DFSG compatible license to keep the website consistent.


Written/Structured ideas:

Our website is a very important part of the Debian Project,
it is one of the main interfaces with our users, it contains
lots of useful information and references. Considering this,
the content of the website is licensed under a DFSG compatible
license.

There are mainly two ways of contributing to the website, you
can either assign your copyright to SPI Inc. or you can
license your contributions under $LICENSE_WWW, but we also
request that you allow the Web Team to relicense your
contributions under a DFSG compatible license when it is
necessary.

[ Add the information from the Joey page so it can be
  translated and we can document the procedure to request
  the access and to confirm that the necessary steps were
  taken to make sure that the contributions do not violate
  copyright and create license problems ]

If you are a translator, please, be sure to check the rules
inside your translation team before start translating a new
document. Please, respect the pseudo-header structure in
order to keep all the information about Copyright and
License traceable.

structure to the webpages, maybe a wml info, to have the
