From 35fb5c0d396ec15283ceb958d18e738fa5d87efa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alain Reguera Delgado Date: Jan 17 2011 03:36:32 +0000 Subject: Update render_doTranslationMarkers.sh: - The copyright information is printed to let everyone to know what person (i.e., the one who creates) own the creation rights over one specific creation. Inside CentOS Artwork Repository, we print copyright information in the following image-related components: 1. The artistic motifs. Define the visual style of themes. The copyright of artistic motifs are owned by artistic motifs authors. Just as specified in the `authors.txt' file inside the artistic motif directory structure. Artistic motifs are renderable, so copyright and license information are both printed out on images under trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/$THEME/Concept directory structure only. 2. The design models. Define the characteristics of themes. The copyright of design models are owned by design models authors. Just as specified in the metadata information inside each individual design model scalable vector graphic. Design models are not renderable, they are scalable vector graphics that connect translations with artistic motifs. So, copyright information cannot be shown at rendering time here. Instead, we use the SVG metadata information to describe copyright and license information inside design models. 3. The CentOS themes. Set of images connected among themselves by means of a common visual patterns (artistic motif + design model). The copyright information of CentOS themes is owned by The CentOS Project. Image inside CentOS theme are renderable, they are produced from artistic motifs, design models, and translation files. Only those images related to Anaconda progress first slides do use the copyright and license information. At this point, we've defined who own the creation rights of artistic motifs, design models, and the CentOS themes. Now, in order to use these components it is required that each component author relases his/her work under a license that grants the freedom of using, studying, changing and releasing improved versions of his/her work. Also, the license should prevent any privatizing practice or any kind of darkness that put in risk the freedom of our community. Personal Note: -------------- I'm not a lawyer. So, I can't give details of something I don't know certainly. All I can do is using my intuition and it says to me that Creative Common Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/) seems to be a good candidate. It has been used in the wiki (http://wiki.centos.org/) for some time. Also, other relevant projects like The Tango Project are using it to release art works and similar creations. So, in the sake of covering copyright information and license needs inside centos-art.sh script, all images produced by `centos-art.sh' script will be released using the copyright information of each component author (see above) and the license Creative Common Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/). This would change in the future, after a collective discussion in the CentOS mailing list. --- diff --git a/Scripts/Bash/Functions/Render/render_doTranslationMarkers.sh b/Scripts/Bash/Functions/Render/render_doTranslationMarkers.sh index 2980746..23e07ed 100755 --- a/Scripts/Bash/Functions/Render/render_doTranslationMarkers.sh +++ b/Scripts/Bash/Functions/Render/render_doTranslationMarkers.sh @@ -44,9 +44,9 @@ function render_doTranslationMarkers { # Redefine theme replacements.
