[Commons-l] Fwd: [Foundation-l] Foundation Licensing Policy

[Brianna Laugher]

No surprises for us.

>>Whereas the mission of the Wikimedia Foundation is to "empower and
engage people around the world to collect and develop educational
content under a free content license,"<<

Note my favourite phrase _educational content_. goodbye, useless crud! :]

To: Wikimedia Foundation Mailing List <foundation-l at lists.wikimedia.org>


The board has now passed its resolution on the media licensing policy,
available now at:
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Resolution:Licensing_policy

This policy is intended to reflect the principles in the message
posted earlier at
http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2007-February/027547.html
and to make the guidelines for acceptable media licenses clearer
across all projects.

A beginning draft of an FAQ page is on Meta at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Licensing_policy_FAQ_draft -- please
add your own questions and suggest answers.

Please pass this information on to your project communities!

Cheers,
Kat Walsh
