Hi Isla, I am aware that Wiki Africa is licensed under CC-BY-SA. This means that anyone can freely use the contents but does not exactly define the "Ownership". In your earliest comment, you wrote "* But I no longer work with them. If they want to continue, that is great."* which I interpreted as If Africa Center want to continue with the program, that's great.
Since you admitted yourself that Africa Center might continue with the same program/project, it's difficult to assumed they have no legal right on "Wiki Africa". Regards, Isaac.
