Apologies for cross posting, looks like something is messed up with my SWC mailing list contacts.
I thought I would post here to elicit experiences and thoughts. The scientific society that covers my field is having a discussion about recording rights for conference presentations. Some people have suggested a policy that bans recording all together. I'm not happy with this option and it has got me thinking about licencing options. I would like to see a policy that places presentations under a formal licence such as a Creative Commons licence. Does such a licence protect the presenter from derivative copies of work, such as a photo of a presentation slide? Do other scientific organisations have policies in this area? Thanks for your expertise, Tom
