Greetings Open Colleagues: More good news from Creative Commons (in addition to 4.0<http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/40768> )!
We are pleased to announce a new suite of Creative Commons licenses<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/>specifically designed for intergovernmental organizations (IGOs)<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intergovernmental_organization> . CC announcement: http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/41061 WIPO's announcement: http://www.wipo.int/pressroom /en/articles/2013/article_0026.html If you receive inquiries about "why do they need something special?", you can point folks to these FAQs: http://wiki.creativecommons .org/Intergovernmental_Organizations#FAQ:_CC_Licenses_and_IGOs Why does this matter? Because the IGOs (e.g., OECD, UNESCO, WIPO) who helped build these CC licenses are now thinking about how and when to share their resources under CC licenses. Today is a good day for the Commons. Well done all, Cable PS - thanks for sharing through your networks: *New CC license suite designed for intergovernmental organizations http://bit.ly/IWp2Mz <http://t.co/w5XErFcK02>* -- Cable Green, PhD Director of Global Learning Creative Commons @cgreen <http://twitter.com/cgreen> http://creativecommons.org/education * reuse, revise, remix & redistribute* -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WikiEducator" group.
