I've been working behind the scenes on some changes to Sugar and the Journal that allow storing and modifying Creative Commons license metadata. It's pretty rudimentary, and it's more of a demo than code that should be merged the way it is, but I'd love to have some feedback on it.
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Creative_Commons#How_to_try_it is some info. To summarize here: * http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/3529 is a ticket with the history of this * http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=users/paulproteus/journal-activity.git;a=summary is the gitweb of my Journal branch * http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=users/paulproteus/sugar.git;a=summary is the gitweb of my Sugar branch To make this go: 1. Install the liblicense RPM at http://downloads.sourceforge.net/cctools/liblicense-0.4-1.i386.rpm (forcing the dependencies, for now; I'll build an updated RPM soon). 2. In your jhbuild (or what have you), pull my changes from my git repository. Sugar first: git remote add asheesh git://dev.laptop.org/users/paulproteus/sugar.git git fetch asheesh git merge asheesh/master Then the Journal: git remote add asheesh git://dev.laptop.org/users/paulproteus/journal-activity.git git fetch asheesh git merge asheesh/master 3. Then build, and run! I'd like feedback (mostly from laptop.org'ers, but anyone else is fine too!) about the UI, the implementation, the bugs, the data store interactions, and so forth. You'll find that my additions are technically fairly simple. The major difficulties, I think, will be working out the UI for this, which is something that I am not comfortable with, and maybe thinking through the right way to make this accessible to other activities (data store usage). Please, please reply with either "I need more instructions getting it going" or "I got it going and have this to say". I want feedback!
