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.
Projects
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
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.
Licensing Activity
After initial liblicense-sugar integratoin, the idea of a licensing activity is to be explored for:
- explaining the six major Creative Commons licenses to children (comics, cartoons, etc)
- activity for setting the default license for an OLPC will be part of this too
License Setting in Control Panel
Initially OLPC was not going to have a control panel, but there is the possibility this will be needed in future versions of the device, so liblicense-sugar will possibly need to be integrated into this.
Licensing Curriculum
This is much more down the road, but hopefully an outcome from the Licensing Activity is to develop some curriculum. This is a lower priority than integration.
