 What makes it interesting for us is that it is a CC-BY-SA license.
 And, I think, the first time the Government of India is participating
 in something that is CC-BY-SA licensed.


Err, Its CC-BY-NC-SA. We cant use the pictures. :( A letterhead from Chapter
to remove NC clause might help? Since the aim of the initiative is to
portray high quality pictures about India and anyone who scouts for pictures
come to Wikipedia, hence the probability of usage will be high if its on
Wikipedia and hence request you to change.. of sorts letter. It can be even
dual licensed by CC-BY-SA and private agreement(?) so the photographers dont
loose their share of money?

But glad govt is atleast thinking of CC licenses even if its NC.

Arun,
Just curious how do you get into special arrangements with your picture? It
is a form of dual licensing, and is it supported by Commons ?

Just to say that the contest is now using the CC-BY-SA license now.

http://takshashila.org.in/events/india-impressions-photography-competition/

Apart from entering, I'm hoping we'll find that we have many pictures
to use in articles that otherwise didn't have one.

Thank you.

[Wikimediaindia-l] Rescheduling of Monthly IRC / Introductions for Shiju Nitika

2011-08-16 Thread Hisham Mundol
Hi Folks

I had initially suggested that we'd hold the monthly India Programs IRC at 9pm 
on Thursday Aug 18th - to formally introduce Shiju  Nitika..  ...I'm 
requesting a change in this because there are some urgent meetings with the 
Campus Ambassadors at Pune that have come up which unfortunately can't be 
rescheduled.

Can I therefore propose Thursday August 24th at 9pm IST pls.  (I'll send out a 
reminder closer to the day.)

Sorry about this.

Best
