I am still debating whether to use a GPL license, or a CC variety. The idea is to give out the data, and make sure that some other organization cannot just sell the data -- we want to make sure that it is used, and perpetuates, and that WiFiMaps.com is cited. This might be a good time to ask the community (and Brashear at the same time) what they think about community-collected WiFi geo data licensing.
I'm just a guy. However if cddb, and before that a certain mailing list, tell me anything, it's that someone else asserting compilation copyright on data I provided in a way that precludes me from using it, is unpalatable. As long as there's a license that precludes someone from taking the provided data private and making a profit, good.
I'm not opposed to profit, but if you want my data, pay me or keep giving me stuff for free, (if) I gave you stuff for free.
That's all. _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://lists.burri.to/mailman/listinfo/geowanking
