For those bringing cameras to ApacheCon, could I ask you to take
photographs in the following topics, for future AOO marketing, website
and social media use:
- photos of speakers, either during their presentation or before/after
their talk.
- audience photographs
- photographs of project members talking informally, at the conference
or at social gatherings
- photographs of computer screens running AOO, or looking at AOO source
code
- location shots that give a sense of the place, e.g., showing
ApacheCon logo or AOO logo.
Be creative and have fun! I wish I could be there.
Please keep in mind, that you need the permission of the persons, if you
make the picture available on a website. In Germany that is mandatory and
only in case of "Personen der Zeitgeschichte" such permission is not needed.
Does this depend on the fact that the photo was taken in Germany? I
believe our website is in the US. Certainly Apache is a US-based
organization.
Under our laws, non-commercial, editorial use of photographs
containing identifiable people is fine, with a few exceptions.
Of course, we should respect the wishes of those in photographs,
regardless of whether applicable laws require it or not.
I'm no lawyer, so I know no details. In case of taken a picture of
speakers, I would simple ask them to agree to be shown.
Kind regards
Regina
