Hello Baseer, I am only familiar with 1.5 XMLUI, so I am not sure if it works the same way in the JSP interface. But this is how it works in the XMLUI:
When you change the license, it is not retroactive; this means, it only changes for the items you add after you change the license. As far as I know, you can not change all the old licenses at once; you must do it one at a time. To change the license on older items, you must: - Go to the item that has a license you want to change - Click "Edit This Item" - Click the Item Bitstreams tab - Upload a New Bitstream - Then you add the new license txt file You're not quite done: - After you've uploaded the new txt file, click on it - Where it says Primary Bitstream, select Yes Then you can delete the old license bitstream from that item. It has been mentioned before to be careful when changing license agreements, since someone previously did agree to that old license.
