Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [VOLK] VOLK website license

[Marcus Müller]

Forgot to mention: of course I feel flattered by you mentioning me as
copyright holder, but I'd rather see you use the VOLK project as source.
I made that "being a part of the project" :)

Cheers,

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [VOLK] VOLK website license

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Raj,

Ben is absolutely right. Feel free to use the logo in your presentations.

Rationale: I made that logo so that people could associate something
visible with VOLK. Now, having a logo that no-one uses is pretty much
stupid, hence, you should feel more than welcome to use it, especially
when talking about GR, VOLK, FOSS DSP & SDR, SIMD etc.

The only thing that I don't want to happen with that logo is that
someone takes it, slaps it onto his product/website/… and (inherently)
claims he "owns" VOLK. So, mandatory attribution is totally sufficient
to solve that issue.

Hence, I put that logo under CC-by-SA;
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ , so: use it as much as
you want, as long as you refer to libvolk.org as source.

Cheers,
Marcus

Hi Raj -

Thanks so much for checking! We really appreciate it. Yes, you may use the
logo for that purpose.

We intend to get a page up on the new website that clearly lays out the
various licenses used for GNU Radio IP, but haven't gotten around to it,
yet. Your e-mail is a good example of why this would be helpful.

I will also be at the Symposium next week. I look forward to meeting you!

Cheers,
Ben

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [VOLK] VOLK website license

[West, Nathan]

Indeed.

I updated the footer to point to the correct license and clarified that the
logo is copyright Marcus. Obviously he has licensed it for purposes of this
website. We had a brief conversation about it a few minutes ago in which I
don't think we had an agreement on what the license for the logo should be.

I'll update again with a proper license statement for the logo once we have
clarification on his intent.

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] [VOLK] VOLK website license

[Marcus Müller]

As it happens, I designed that logo; it's not necessarily under the same
license as the website.

Now I'm curious: what's your plan? What do you want to do with that logo?

Best regards,
Marcus

[Discuss-gnuradio] [VOLK] VOLK website license

[Raj Bhattacharjea]

The VOLK website claims it's contents are licensed under "Creative Commons
Attribution-NoDerivs 4.0 International", however, the license link actually
takes you to the text of the "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0
International".

These are different licenses and the difference is whether the license
allows others to use the content for commercial purposes. I was trying to
cite a copy of the VOLK logo when I came across this. I hope the VOLK
website maintainer watches this list and clarifies which license the site
is under.
