@laurelrusswurm What if !CC started actually educating instead of relying on those misguided perceptions?
-
@dpic educating is the way to go... i thought that was what !cc *did* ... the new license selector thingy w/ free/non free stuff is great
-
and there are complaints that that is insulting. you cant comfortably mix the Free and the non-Free.
-
as we see with the GPL vs BSD, MIT, Apache, it is hard enough to mix the copyleft and permissive Free.
-
@zotz you can’t mix licenses with *different* terms at all, except if one is a real subset of the other — which is pretty clear with #cc.
-
@zotz oh damn, am I really arguing *for* NC? … guess so. To change society, you must remember those who start with the first steps.
-
but you don't have to have the Free and non-Free licenses under the same brand. for one it would avoid these constant discussions.
-
the licenses are mixed brand wise. they are all CC licenses but the Free and the non-Free do not coexist well.
-
@arnebab must not forget the end goal either, and not start a negotiation asking for less than what you want
-
@lxoliva I’m cannot negotiate with artists. I try to convince them that free culture is the better way for them, too.
-
Free software has examples of one way that works.
-
the people who use the licenses are mixed together despite their very different goals. it creates "fun" for elastic definitions of the word.
