Advance if things break or do not job properly ... ?

There are some limits to this application and you could take a note it in beta, so apologies in advance if things break or do not job properly. Maybe the biggest limits is that works may only be licensed on a per-profile basis. This means that you must make the choice to license all of your job of a given media mode (e. g. , all of your photos) below a particular CC license or none at all. Unless Facebook integrates CC license chances in to their Photo application, licensing works on a per-photo basis (as users have the freedom to do on places like Flickr and Wikimedia Commons) isn't probabble. Thus, this implementation of a CC licenses on Facebook is a stop-gap solution to true integration in to the service. If You have got another ideas or discover another bugs for our application, please head over to our wiki and Post them.

We require to exchange our revenue models. fortunately It is simple for United States — simpler than if we were a leading label. we are little, we are flexible, and we do not practice economies of scale.

That sharing without standardized official tools does not scale ... ?

The require arises from the reality that sharing without standardized official tools does not scale. It does not scale socially — if I was not a normal Techdirt reader I would not know that Masnick had declared Techdirt satisfaction is no cost for someone and for any reason (and Also now I can only discover 1 such declaration because I remembered that Masnick had written about it in a Post that mentioned CC! ), nor according on wording could I know what that meant. It does not scale technically — there is no way for software like search engines to recognize ad hoc declarations.

As far-away as marking up my own resources for OER search and discovery, I’m still studying about the procedure myself. In fact, prior to my job with Curriki, I was hesitant to “release” my job as open source.
