Hi all, Not surprisingly, there are many different opinions as to how we're comfortable having people use our work. I'd encourage folks to explore Creative Commons. You check a few boxes and they'll give you a customized, readable copyright agreement. For example, my website World Beyond Borders uses an Attribution - Noncommercial - Share Alike Creative Commons license.
