Dear Cameron, as Jeremy points out, all the documentation used as
training material during the previous editions of the summer school
[1][2][3], are freely available for download in the summer school
website as well as from the ELOGeo[4] repository under a creative
commons license. Using this material as a starting point for
educational material related to OSGeo-Live sounds good. Do you think
that a CC-By-SA is a proper license for this kind of material?
Lluís,
There was a debate on the OSGeo-Live email list discussing what
OSGeo-Live documentation should be licenced under.
CC-By was selected for Project Overviews, as it has been considered an
easier form for mashing up into other documentation.
CC-By-SA has been selected for Quickstarts. More effort is required to
develop Quickstarts, so contributors in general felt that extensions to
their Quickstarts should be made freely available, (as mandated by the
CC-By-SA license).
For training material, I'd suggest authors should be encouraged to
contribute material under a CC-By-SA license. (They might want to dual
license under another license as well).
