Hi,
Last week a small case of copyright violation come to a positive conclusion.
Niccolò Caranti [[User:Jaqen]] is a Wikipedian and as a professional photographer also a very prolific Commons contributor to the point that he is a sysop both on itwiki and Commons.
He recently discovered that one of his photos was used for an event without respecting the terms of the CC-BY-SA license, i.e. without proper attribution to him and reference to the license.
Supported by Simone Aliprandi - a lawyer specializing in intellectual property and author of a number of (free/libre) books on the topic of licenses and Creative Commons in particular - they sent a formal request to the organizers of the event.
The issue has been resolved amicably with all legal costs paid by the agency that was working for the organizers of the event (who admitted their mistake) and a compensation for the author.
