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.
