1) Creative Commons licenses have been enforced in courts in various countries, including Belgium, Israel, and Germany. In these cases, authors sued for license breaches when their works were used without proper attribution or for commercial purposes without permission.
2) Community enforcement of Creative Commons licenses also occurs, such as when a far-right political party used an image without attribution and the author sought an injunction.
3) The document argues that while legal enforcement is important, over-reliance on lawyers could undermine the Creative Commons movement. Instead, Creative Commons should focus on building databases and improving licenses to make them more user-friendly, especially for institutions.
Using the CC BY license, Workshop for 2013 OPEN Kick-offJane Park
Summary of session from OPEN Kickoff Conference for DOL TAACCCT Round 2 Grantees: This session will dive into detail about the CC BY licensing requirement and what it takes to apply the license to grantee materials. CC will go over the CC license chooser tool, examples of good license implementation, and content-sharing platforms where you can upload resources under the CC BY license. If enough time and interest, CC will also go over best practices for giving attribution to the creators of CC licensed works, especially as part of a larger resource, such as a textbook or course.

The Korean Copyright Act of 2003 defines key terms related to databases and sui generis rights for databases. It defines a database as a collection of information arranged systematically that can be individually accessed. Database producers are those who make a substantial investment to produce, renew, verify or supplement a database. They have rights to control the reproduction, distribution, broadcasting or transmission of all or a substantial part of the database. Using a substantial part repetitively or systematically in a way that conflicts with the normal use of the database or prejudices the producer's interests violates these rights. The Act provides database producers exclusive rights and protection for 5 years, effectively in perpetuity.
The document discusses options for revising the noncommercial (NC) licenses in Creative Commons' version 4.0 release. It notes that NC licenses have issues like a lack of clear definition, underuse of non-NC licenses, and built-in non-interoperability. Some proposed options are: (1) phasing out NC licenses over time, (2) simplifying the suite by dropping two NC licenses, (3) rebranding NC licenses under a different domain, or (4) clarifying the NC definition. The document analyzes pros and cons of different approaches but does not make a recommendation.

It argues that OER can be continuously updated to teach about the SDGs, connecting education to solving global challenges. Students could also help create and revise OER about the SDGs, allowing their work to make a meaningful impact while also motivating deeper learning. The document promotes mainstreaming OER to support achieving the SDGs.
Today, desirability of products is manufactured by a brand – messages from an army of advertisers and companies spending billions of euros yearly to create a perception of desirability in their products or services. Tomorrow, the desirability of products will be more about the relationship created between an object and consumer – conversations before, during and after purchase that reflect the understanding of each other’s needs.
This talk explores desirability in the age of connected products – a provocation on designing for form, interaction and tone of voice when products can speak for themselves.

Presentation at the 13th International Free Software Forum, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Abstract: In Latin America, it’s well-understood that Brazil was pioneering in considering FOSS to be both a strategy and a tool for regional economic development. But what about the rest of the world? As FOSS/OSS enters the mainstream of industry, how are countries in Europe and Asia looking at this disruptive force in software development? And what is happening in the United States where one could argue a very strong proprietary software industry is reinventing itself, with the U.S. government both following and leading the open development model?
This talk discusses FOSS from the perspective of open information technology ecosystems and government’s role in them, providing a picture of the changing landscape of software industries and the potential for localized economic benefit to those participating. It includes a perspective of how governments are experimenting with becoming more directly involved with the open source community, and to learn from them. Stories and examples are drawn for the speakers experience, research and direct involvement with government, academic and industry bodies creating exemplary projects and reference models for others to consider.
The document describes a financial pyramid model for managing investments from low to high risk. The bottom level focuses on low-risk protections like debt repayment, savings, and insurance. The middle level includes slightly higher growth investments like time deposits, mutual funds, and bonds. The top speculative level involves high risk investments like gold, art, and real estate speculation. It recommends climbing the pyramid one level at a time from protections to savings to wealth building and finally speculation only after becoming financially secure with excess funds and low or no debt.

The capital of British India was shifted from Calcutta to Delhi in 1911. British architect Edwin Lutyens was tasked with planning and designing New Delhi. Lutyens designed an expansive garden city with wide avenues and classical buildings. Key elements of the design included the Rashtrapati Bhavan, Secretariat buildings, Parliament House, residential areas, and princely state palaces. However, the rapid growth of Old Delhi was not adequately planned for, leading to overcrowding and deterioration.

Standards 2010: Prospects and Challenges for Standards Development in the Nex...Chuck Allen
Standards 2010: Prospects and Challenges for Standards Development in the Next Decade
As standards organizations enter the 2010s, they face very different circumstances than a decade a ago. At the dawn of the "2000s," analysts warned us that a key risk was the creation of a "tower of babel" as industry standards groups proliferated nearly as fast as dot.com start-ups. By the end of the decade, some groups had achieved measurable interoperability gains, but only at the cost of years of upfront committee time followed by implementation and revision cycles also spanning years. Today, standards organizations that have managed to survive the decade's two boom and bust cyles face vastly different funding circumstances and participation levels. At the same time, standards organizations are challenged by an accelerating pace of technology and marketplace change.
In this session, Chuck Allen, founder of the HR-XML Consortium and an adviser to other standards initiatives, will offer a survey of the state of standards development, including key challenges and new approaches. Among topics to be reviewed are:
Development methodologies. The committee processes driving most standards development organizations (SDOs) have remained largely unchanged over the past decade (STAR standards being an important exception). Most SDOs take months or years to spec out a standard with meaningful development against the specification beginning only after publication. While standards organizations have been slow to adapt their methodologies, in the same period, many enterprises have significantly transformed their internal development processes through the adoption of a range of agile methodologies. While there is growing recognition of the need to update standards development process, the prospect of applying agile methodologies to standards development tends to be met with equal degrees of interest and trepidation.
Intellectual property. Most standards organizations manage intellectual property by requiring participants to grant royalty-free licenses to the SDO and to anyone implementing the standard. For companies with large patent portfolios, this can impose a burden of expensive patent inventory searches and monitoring. Since each SDO has slightly different licensing terms, current licensing practices also prove challenging for an implementer wanting to apply multiple standards as well as for standards development organizations trying to converge standards. Patent non-assertion policies and efforts to simplify and standardize licenses hold some promise is reigning in the complexity associated with managing IP.
Funding models. Standards cost money to develop and maintain. However, traditional funding approaches, such as pay-to-play" and "pay-for-the-standard" don't always keep up with funding needs and can work as disincentives for adoption and engagement. There isn't an easy answer to the question of financial sustainability for many SDOs, particularly in these tight economic times. The answer likely lies in a combination of approaches, including doing more with less, the design of attractive sponsorships, meeting and programming fees, and taking advantage of grant opportunities.

This document introduces Bruno Cornec and provides information about his background working with open source software since 1988. It then summarizes the FOSSology project, which is a framework for analyzing open source software to understand licenses and reduce uncertainty about using open source. Key aspects of FOSSology discussed include its license detection capabilities, architecture, requirements, and timeline of new features. Potential other uses for FOSSology are also listed.
The document discusses topics related to free and open source licensing such as the goals of Creative Commons 4.0 licenses, issues around copyleft and non-commercial clauses, interoperability between licenses, and alignment of CC licenses with other open licenses like GPL. It raises questions about improving areas like moral rights, DRM restrictions, and increasing clarity between copyright and Creative Commons.
Free and open source software (FOSS) refers to software that is available for use, modification, and sharing without restriction and often without cost. There are two major philosophies behind FOSS - the Free Software Foundation's focus on freedom and liberty, and the Open Source Initiative's focus on open collaboration and transparency. FOSS provides users the four essential freedoms: to run the program for any purpose, study and change the program, redistribute copies, and improve the program and share improvements with others. FOSS has a long history dating back to the 1980s with projects like GNU and the development of the Linux kernel. It offers significant cost savings over proprietary software and promotes collaboration and innovation through its open development model.

This document provides an overview of open source software and open development. It discusses the history of open source software and definitions of key terms. It also presents two case studies of successful open source projects: TexGen, a textile CAD modeler, and Apache Wookie, a widget server. Both projects benefited from collaboration, publicity, and new partnerships by being open source. The document also briefly covers legal aspects of open source like copyright.
Have the licensing talk early to maximize impactDominik Lukes
This document discusses the importance of having early conversations about licensing for collaborative projects. It provides examples from three projects where discussing licensing early helped address issues around intellectual property ownership and copyright. The key points are:
- Discussing licensing early clarifies copyright ownership and conditions of use when collaborators leave a project.
- Open licensing allows materials to be shared more openly while still protecting intellectual property through attribution. It avoids awkward later conversations about use and ownership.
- The three example projects all accepted open licensing principles after discussions, though one chose a more restrictive license and one a more liberal license than originally proposed.
The document discusses the evolution of FOSS (free and open source software) governance from a narrow early focus on license compliance to modern frameworks that maximize commercial and non-commercial value through effective licensing, code management, and issue resolution. It notes that FOSS use has become mainstream in IT, highlighting the need for governance strategies. The talk traces how governance has matured from the early days of ensuring license terms were followed to today's emphasis on processes that allow collaboration while recognizing FOSS's value.
Open Source Hardware and Developments in Creative Commons Licenses, Compatibi...Mike Linksvayer
This document summarizes Mike Linksvayer's presentation on developments in Creative Commons licenses and their relevance to open source hardware. Some key points:
- CC BY-SA 4.0 and CC BY 4.0 licenses have improvements that make them more globally applicable and easier to understand and comply with.
- CC BY-SA 4.0 is now bilaterally compatible with the Free Art License, allowing works to be adapted between the two licenses.
- The CC BY-SA 4.0 and CC BY 4.0 licenses explicitly exclude patents from the license, avoiding potential confusion.
- Open source hardware projects seeking patent collaboration could explore licenses that include patent grants, like GPLv3, or
This document summarizes a presentation on license interoperability for public sector information (PSI) reuse. It discusses how open source software and open content have progressed toward interoperable licensing over the past 25+ years, but challenges remain including incompatible copyleft licenses and a proliferation of custom licenses. Key initiatives like Creative Commons and Open Knowledge Foundation are working to address these issues and promote consensus licensing principles that only include open terms to facilitate greater interoperability and reuse of PSI. Upcoming milestones that could impact licensing include events focused on the EU's digital agenda and open knowledge.
Legal interoperability of open government data is challenged by different licensing schemes that limit mixing of data from multiple sources. The document discusses this issue, outlines various open data licenses (e.g. Creative Commons, Open Data Commons), and notes implications for license stewards and users. Universal "donor" licenses like CC0 and PDDL enable full interoperability, while BY and SA licenses provide varying levels of interoperability depending on attribution and derivative work requirements.
This document discusses legal interoperability issues regarding open data licensing. It notes that for data to be freely mixed and reused, licensing needs to allow this legally without prohibitive transaction costs. Several existing open data licenses are described, but perfect legal interoperability is difficult to achieve. Best practices include using licenses like CC0 that are "universal donors" and promoting reuse of data licensed under ShareAlike. National open data licenses should strive for harmonization and avoid custom licenses when possible.
Towards License Interoperability: Patterns of Sustainable Sharing PolicyMike Linksvayer
The document discusses challenges and progress toward legal interoperability for open content and public sector information (PSI) licensing. It describes how free/libre open source software (FLOSS) has largely achieved interoperability over 25+ years through efforts like the GPL and agreements on definitions. For open content and PSI, proliferation of licenses initially caused issues, but adoption of Creative Commons licenses and others has increased, though database rights remain a challenge. Key initiatives like CC and Open Knowledge Foundation are working to resolve remaining incompatibilities and reduce unnecessary license proliferation to fully realize the potential of openly licensed content and PSI through interoperability.
Presented by Brooks Kushman and Rogue Wave Software at the Embedded Systems Conference. It provides both legal and practical considerations in developing embedded systems using open source software (OSS).

Maintaining a healthy and thriving Public DomainPaul Keller
This document discusses the challenges of maintaining an open public domain. It notes that while advocates fight to preserve concepts like public domain works that are not owned, they are currently in the minority. It emphasizes the importance for advocates to have a strong understanding of the issues they are discussing and to develop a shared view of what tradeoffs they are willing to accept in order to be effective.
Lecture given as part of the 'Policies and Practices in Access to Digital Archives: Towards a New Research and Policy Agenda' couse at the CEU summer course 2012 in budapest
The document discusses Europeana's licensing framework for metadata. It states that Europeana publishes metadata as linked open data under open licenses, while the metadata is also published via the Europeana API. It then discusses working on mechanisms for rights clearance, improving compliance with Europeana data models and rights information, and promoting the use of Creative Commons licenses for digital objects.
Open Data in the cultural sector: Cultural heritage data in EuropeanaPaul Keller
This document discusses Europeana's strategic plan to make cultural heritage data more open and accessible through 2025. Key points include:
- Europeana aggregates over 20 million digital objects from cultural institutions across Europe and provides metadata and previews.
- Current data exchange agreements place restrictive conditions on how the data can be used, such as non-commercial use only.
- A consultation found that the benefits of open sharing outweigh the risks, so Europeana will remove restrictions on commercial use and publish data under a CC0 license.
- Guidelines for metadata reuse will address issues like attribution and data quality during a transition period from 2011 to mid-2012.
- More content could be made available with improved rights clearance mechanisms

Promoting openness in the public sector, the case of the NetherlandsPaul Keller
This document summarizes the work of Creative Commons Netherlands in promoting openness in the public sector. Creative Commons Netherlands, supported by the Dutch ministry of culture, education and science since 2005, works to improve adoption of Creative Commons licenses through providing information and collaborating with institutional users like educational institutions, cultural heritage organizations, and the public sector. The document provides examples of Wikiwijs, an open educational platform launched by the Dutch ministry of education that uses a Creative Commons license, and Rijksoverheid.nl, the Dutch government's unified website that uses the Creative Commons Zero public domain dedication. It concludes with lessons learned around combining advocacy and research, relating policy objectives, and preparing implementers to address legal questions.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
