As the 4.0 license allows for licensees to specify a custom copyright notice, which reusers must retain in any reproductions and redistributions, would the new cc:Notice tag actually contain this custom copyright notice, or is it for something else?
I for one would like to see the copyright notice be part of the license RDFa, since it’s unrealistic to expect reusers to retain information that can only be found by visually browsing the publisher’s site, and trying to locate such information (possibly in a foreign language, even). -- Tarmo Toikkanen [email protected] http://tarmo.fi On Thursday 13. 03 2014 at 1.30, Maarten Zeinstra wrote: > Hi all, > > Recently I’ve been working with Antoine Isaac (in cc) from Europeana on the > machine readability of the deed pages of the 4.0 licenses.
