I generally try to enforce the spirit, rather the the letter, of licenses. If someone links back to the source, that's generally good enough for me because someone who sees it has a practical way of finding out the license and reusing it themselves if they want to. The exception to that is when they are using it in a way that should trigger the viral aspect of the copyleft license. In that case, it's important for them to acknowledge that in order to use my work they have to free their own, and to notify others that their work as well as mine if freely licensed. -Sage _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
