No detailed knowledge of copyright issues is required. In most cases, a journal is either all-rights-reserved or uses a specific standard CC license. You can just browse their website and look at any info they have about author guidelines or submission or copyright & licensing, and it will almost always have the answer. A few cases are more complicated, but it's fine to leave things blank or just add free text explanation if it doesn't fit the normal categories. At this point, we're still pretty much exploring the problem space. We started from a very, very incomplete list and we're basically getting that into good shape to figure out what the format should be, what information is feasible to include, and how best to tabulate the data we want to include. Just post on the talk page if you find something that doesn't seem to fit; those are useful data points for figuring out how to structure all this, so that we can eventually do as much as possible in automated or semi-automated fashion. -Sage _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freeculture.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss FAQ: http://wiki.freeculture.org/Fc-discuss
