-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello,
I would like to find out the following points regarding the licensing of the documentations at mozilla.org under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0. * Why did you choose this license among other licenses? * How did you get permission from the contributors to license the documents under CC? * Are you going to relicense the documents under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 in the future? If so, how are you going to obtain permission to relicense the documents from the contributors? The reason for these questions is that we (the Mozilla Japan translation division) to license the translated documents under Creative Commons, so that the translated materials can be migrated to Mozilla Developer Center without asking each translator each time they migrate the documents. However, it is concerned that CC does not explicitly require to display changes made to the document in its Legal Code. As an extreme example, it it technically possible to insert a line like "Firefox sucks. Let's use IE." and distribute that modified document as a document from mozilla.org legally as long as the modifier follows the Legal Code, namely displaying the names of the original authors and the license terms. How do you address this type of concern? My questions might be based on faulty assumptions. If so, please point that out. I will be grateful. Yours, Satoru. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDeEeyl2D3Wzwu37MRArgFAKCsCjI+aINw2VAz4mRhd+LU6+j2awCgmpSL O1HEfT0woSvo7rWrCX/ZYaw= =ax3a -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ mozilla-license mailing list mozilla-license@mozilla.org http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-license
