Creative Commons

Creative Commons is a non-profit organization which provides free open content licenses to the world. Creative Commons is also working on the OLPC projects as well to add licensing infrastructure to Sugar through the journal initially. Also, Creative Commons is dedicated to assisting in developing documentation and other assistance to push this project forward.

liblicense-sugar Integration

Creative Commons developed liblicense as a general c-based library for adding license support to OLPC, OpenMoko, Gnome, KDE, and other desktops. We also have built some integration code and have submitted this patch and the latest RPM of liblicense to https://dev.laptop.org/ticket/3529 for adding liblicense to OLPC and also to the Journal to set both a default content license and also to set a per-journal-entry CC license.

Tracked Enhancements

• Adding liblicense support to OLPC Sugar Journal
• Add license search to the journal

Tracked Bugs

• None yet! Cool!

liblicense-sugar Customizations

Here is where customization of liblicense and OLPC integration will be discussed, and eventually possibly moved to its own page. liblicense-sugar is extensible. There will be a need in the future for possible customizations per jurisdiction, so what to keep that in mind and document as the need arises.
