Dear All We're opening a project in which the source code can be any permissive open-source license, but the project will also include TEI/XML marked up text. We intend for the text to be freely available, markup and all, but we were wondering if the non-code files (the TEI/XML marked up text) can be protected under the creative commons attribution, share alike, non-commercial license. The marked up text represents a translation and we would like to protect the rights of the translator to their work. The text should be freely available, but we would like to prevent (insofar as a license can) anyone from publishing this particular translation for profit.
I'm pleased to see that google code now offers CC v.3 by and at licenses for documentation and other "non-code" components, but it does not offer the CC noncommercial license. This problem may affect projects using translations of texts as we are, but it may also be relevant to folks working with glossaries and dictionaries, indexes, scans of works under copyright, tabular compiled data, and perhaps other things? I'd be please to hear from anyone else who has encountered this problem, and especially from anyone on the google team who has given this matter some thought.
