As Ravi pointed 11th Century Kannada literature is
already public domain .
There is no point in re-licensing it as CC-BY-SA .
Digitization does not create fresh copyright . While thanking Govt for their
efforts to make it available , please dont create fresh copyright on it .
And while looking at details, There was no point of time in which govt of
Karanataka had copyright on this content .
digitization does create copyright. Whatever mess they do, that belongs to them.
We need it for proper attribution.
The problem is severe in many historical/archaeological studies.
People do not agree on symbols from Harappan studies for example.
