Hi James, I would be interested in joining the call on June 10th as a participant. After the June 10th call we can discuss if it makes sense for SPDX to present at a future Licensing Interest Group meeting. FYI- I’m based in Irvine, CA.
Please send the dial-in information for the June 10th call. Best, Paul Madick SPDX Legal Team co-lead From: spdx-legal-boun...@lists.spdx.org [mailto:spdx-legal-boun...@lists.spdx.org] On Behalf Of James C. Roberts III Sent: Friday, May 27, 2016 3:15 AM To: Maarten Zeinstra <m...@kl.nl> Cc: spdx-legal@lists.spdx.org Subject: Re: New License/Exception Request rightsstatements.org While I have all of you on this thread, I thought I’d jump in to ask if anyone is interested in a web-based speaking opportunity to California licensing and transactional lawyers. I’m the Chair of the State Bar’s Licensing Interest Group. We have monthly conference calls, built around a 15-20 minute presentation on some interesting topic. SPDX did a presentation last year but if there is something new or substantive to discuss we’d love to invite you. The same goes for Rightsstatements.org<http://rightsstatements.org> (with which I am familiar). We also have long webinars of one hour that are part of the continuing legal education program, if that is also of interest. As for the conference calls, you do not have to be a speaker and you do not have to be a California attorney; you are more than welcome to participate. Let me know and I’ll send you the call-in information, too. The next one is June 10th at noon, PDT. Maarten, I’m in Milan for the next month if you’d like to talk sometime about your activities.

Rightsstatements.org<http://rightsstatements.org/> is not an identifier for open works, like open source or open content. It is a way to more specifically communicate that all rights are reserved. It is a machine readable format that allows you to communicate an all rights reserved statement, with all it’s RDF goodies attached. I’m happy to have a short call (I’m on CET) to explain more about the project. As for the list, I probably can’t offer as much assistance as I want to, I have a lot of experience in open content, limitations and exceptions to copyright and the public domain in Europe. Happy to help in any way possible.

This is a lot for anyone to absorb quickly, and various members of the legal group have added these resources to their reading lists. As you know, SPDX is primarily about identifying and communicating the licenses that apply to software, and is not about recommending licenses or interpreting the details of license terms. It remains to be seen if any specific SPDX licenses are identified from the resources that you provided. Your interest in the SPDX legal group is greatly appreciated. Regards, Dennis Clark nexB Inc.

I work at Kennisland, a think tank in the Netherlands and work on copyright and technology issues. Mostly on the open content aspects of licensing and hardly ever on open source issues. I also work a Creative Commons Netherlands. I understand SPDX list allows users to communicate in a uniform manner al sorts of licences (mostly Open Source, but also Creative Commons’ licenses.). Are you aware of rightsstatements.org<http://rightsstatements.org/> (where I am a member of the technical working group). Rightsstatements.org<http://rightsstatements.org/> tries to fill the gap of clearly communicating that no licensing applies for in copyright works and tries to explain to the user why that is. It has developed a set of 11 statements that helps to communicate that a given work is in copyright, that no license applies. It tries to clearly communicate (human readable and machine readable) that the rights holder is aware of the copyright issues and has made a conscious choice in this. http://rightsstatements.org/ has been developed by some large holders of linked data like Europeana and the DP.LA<http://dp.la/> and partnered with Creative Commons. I am wondering if this fits the requirements/functionality of SPDX as it stretches the concept of the list. a full list of the statements, short identifiers can be found in our white paper. http://rightsstatements.org/files/160208recommendations_for_standardized_international_rights_statements_v1.1.pdf Regards, Maarten Zeinstra -- Kennisland | www.kl.nl<http://www.kl.nl/> | t +31205756720<tel:%2B31205756720> | m +31643053919<tel:%2B31643053919> | @mzeinstra _______________________________________________ Spdx-legal mailing list Spdx-legal@lists.spdx.org<mailto:Spdx-legal@lists.spdx.org> https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-legal _______________________________________________ Spdx-legal mailing list Spdx-legal@lists.spdx.org<mailto:Spdx-legal@lists.spdx.org> https://lists.spdx.org/mailman/listinfo/spdx-legal itevomcid
