Re: [Chicken-users] Chicken logo license
Peter, I used the Creative Commons licensing form that John Cowan suggested and placed the license texts within the image source directory: http://joshuagriffith.com/chicken/logo/license.html http://joshuagriffith.com/chicken/logo/license.txt Will this work for you? -Josh On Jun 5, 2011, at 4:22 PM, Peter Bex wrote: On Sun, Jun 05, 2011 at 03:47:21PM -0500, Joshua Griffith wrote: Hello Peter, I never put much thought into it and simply wanted to give the logo to the community.

I'd say one of the CC licenses would probably be the most straightforward, but I'd of course also like to know what others in the community think. Wikipedia is very restrictive in the types of licenses they allow: They don't accept works that don't allow commercial use or that forbid derivative works, so one of: CC0, CC-BY or CC-BY-SA would be fine. Using the Free Art license is also allowed. Putting it in the public domain is also sort-of allowed. They don't allow GFDL-only licensed stuff anymore. Of course, if Wikipedia requires specific permission from me to upload the logo, you have it. Thank you. They're mostly concerned with redistribution and modification (remixing) by third parties though. The full story: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Copyright_and_licensing Their docs are confusing, contradictory and just generally hairy.

Fantastic, thank you! (You might want to put your name in the license.txt file too, BTW. This make attribution easier) You can see the result here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_%28Scheme_implementation%29 Clicking on the logo gives you the full SVG image, which can be rescaled at will for any other page.

I wanted to upload it but Wikipedia is paranoid about its image uploads and wants absolute clarity about the license on the logo. So here is the question: what license does our logo fall under?

Thanks, I'm glad the products of procrastination aren't for naught!
