Hi all,

Some big news: Te Papa have released 30,000 high resolution images
under either a no known copyright or CC-BY-NC-ND licence

13,000 have the CC licence;17,000 are public domain.

While there are obviously some issues with the more restrictive
licence, I think this is an extremely positive step. Coupled with last
week's NLNZ announcement and some other work around releasing WW1
images, the NZ heritage sector is making massive strides towards
openness.

Adrian Kingston has written a blog about this:

Cheers,
Matt
