[OSM-legal-talk] Creative-Commons 4.0 (first draft)

[Kai Krueger]

Hi,

I have just seen that Creative-Commons has released a first draft of their
new 4.0 license suit and thought it might be of interest to others on this
list. ( http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/32157 )

The draft for 4.0 now explicitly licenses database rights and addresses
licensing of databases. However, it does not extend restrictions through
contract where copyright and database rights do not restrict usage in the
first place. It also does not have the concept of produced works.

The new draft furthermore addresses attribution in massive collaboration
projects more flexibly than previous licenses by not having to attribute all
authors if the project wishes so.

Kai
