Like you see in the credits of a movie or tv documentary, a magazine colophon, a calendar, and anywhere else where authored works need credit, copyright, and licensed text. Atm I have done some stuff so when hovers over the image, one knows who the author of the image is as well as under what license as being suggested on the list. Have also put up a static text, is it good enough. Btw who is the author of the raised hands photo on the freed.in blog entry http://freed.in/2009/news/inauguration-at-freedin2009.html it's my pleasure to accept your thanks in advance for explaining all this to you so persistently and patiently.

[ilugd] Is the community lacking documentation
Well i was just sitting idle and checking out random stuff And somehow pidgin intrigued me, so i ventured into to get more stuff regarding the implementation of various protocols as plugins etc etc..But as i wanted to get more details of the working i just couldn't get it. So then i asked at #pidgin but they too gaveup saying they dont have a clear documentation of the development process.. Well the whole point is that is the linux community really lacking in the documentation for the various projects done by the community and if that is the case how bad is the situation right now..

Community participation is all about scratching your own itch, If you see some documentation not done for some reason, More likely the reason is nobody required so badly. So , Best bet here is start one and people will join in. Take help from irc and surely you will find your way.

Re: [ilugd] Blog post about Freed.in Day 1
Hi, Talking about copyrighted material but a little OT. On one of the ISO 27001 related mailing lists I am subscribed to, where most of the people are auditors, copyrights are given very high respect/priority. If someone sends some copyrighted material without any proper permissions from the author, he/she is out of the list immediately and this is what the list admin says: Goodbye copyright_violator. If anyone else would like to leave the mailing list, simply unsubscribe yourself or send me an email request if that's too hard: there's no need to post copyright materials here without permission just to get yourself booted off the list ... -Sudhanwa ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
