(sorry about cross-posting with cc-community) Dear FC.o community:
Creative Commons, in conjunction with Fedora and Worldlabel, is working on a second version of LiveContent for distribution to libraries. Please see entry here: http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/7652 In order to create a great release that can be beneficial to libraries and patrons, we're looking to identify a small number of libraries that would be willing to help test out the spins. We're looking at trying to get libraries from various areas of the US to participate. Other areas to investigate: - What is the current computing environment at libraries right now, especially public libraries? The first version of LiveContent (Fedora, open source apps, CC-content) was self-contained on a CD - is a DVD doable for library terminals? - How to increase the amount of open content contained on a disc - CD vs. DVD vs. thumbdrive vs. other options - How to best explain Creative Commons, FOSS movement, and open content - Creating demos of how users can manipulate open content on the disc using the free tools provided, and then also mark and share again - How to automate the process of pulling down CC-content from curators like Flickr, Jamendo, etc. for inclusion on the disc http://creativecommons.org/projects/livecontent -Timothy -- Timothy Vollmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] cell: +1.608.698.2403 Business Development Assistant Creative Commons www.creativecommons.org
