[Ogf-l] PI Declarations Licensed Art
If you license artwork using a non-OGL license, and you publish it in an OGL'd work should you: a) declare it as the licensor's PI (on the grounds that the owner has given you the implied authority to note that their product is protected) b) note that it is outside the scope of the license since you are neither the owner of the art and you are also do not possess the rights to declare it as OGC Are the answers changed if the owner of the art gives you permission to declare it as PI? The OGL seems to require that the owner of the PI carry out the PI declaration, but the general question is whether someone acting on behalf of the owner, directly or indirectly as the agent of the PI owner, can make the PI declaration.

Just keep it out of your OGC declaration. = Let me be clear: Analysts differed on several important aspects of these programs and those debates were spelled out in the [national intelligence] estimate [of october 2002].

Those who believe in closed content that's neither PI nor OGC can exclude artwork from the OGC. Those who don't would have to have the owner of the artwork put a PI declaration within the publisher of the work's own OGC/PI declarations; they couldn't merely declare it outside of the scope of the OGL, since they don't believe there is such a thing.

If a licensor gives you permission to declare something as PI on his behalf (so that you are acting as his agent) is that an acceptable alternative to having the licensor go through the motions himself. I presume that an agent of the PI owner is capable of making such a declaration, much as a guy in a company's licensing department is able to make declarations about PI owned by the company he works for.
