Re: Last chance to look over Libre Wikipedia entry before I publish

Thanks Richard!

Yes, indeed, you may want to check out the discussion pages on those
articles and see if this topic has come up before about creating a new page
outright for "Libre".

You could further help your case by seeing if there is any content that
would not fit appropriately on these two articles (or any other for that
matter) but would make sense to be posted on a "Libre" article.

If you find this to be the case, I'd even recommend adding an explanation
and links to the "Discussion" page.

Re: Last chance to look over Libre Wikipedia entry before I publish

Matthew Senate — 2012-05-23T22:37:47

Great work so far, I added some grammatical and clarification changes to
the first paragraph, would love to continue the conversation on-wiki. Two
meta-level thoughts:

1. Be bold! Posting content on Wikipedia and getting feedback from other
wikipedians will help the article grow and provide opportunities to
improve. Although it's hard to say what other folks might think or whether
this issue has come up previously, I have a good feeling that the term
"Libre" is notable enough to form an article as it both encapsulates a
recognized gap in the English lexicon and has particular significance to
particularly notable social movements (e.g. free/libre software/culture).

2. While the footnotes are great, it would be valuable to reserve <ref>'s
for citations to reliable material. If we can find some more secondary
resources, I think it will help this article stand up on its own legs and
encourage the addition of further content and references down the line.

Good work, keep up the editing!

Last chance to look over Libre Wikipedia entry beforeI publish

Chris Sakkas — 2012-05-23T21:55:23

Hi folks,

A couple of months ago I was drafting a Wikipedia page for 'libre', and I
finally returned to incorporate the remaining feedback I'd received. I'll
publish it in the next couple of days, but I thought I should give you a
chance to look over it before I do so:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sanglorian/sandbox

Feel free to make any edits you like to the article itself, or leave a
comment on the talk page and I'll incorporate it.

Cheers,

Chris

Re: PETITION: Require free access over the Internet toscientific journal articles arising from taxpayer-funded research

Ben Finney — 2012-05-22T21:41:49


Very neat.

Unlike many such petitions, it doesn't try to expand the focus to
incorporate a bunch of ideals that water down the goal and make it more
objectionable; it's sharply focussed on what will be both very effective
and difficult for opponents to reasonably oppose.

Require free access over the Internet to scientific journal articles
arising from taxpayer-funded research.

We believe in the power of the Internet to foster innovation, research, and
education. Requiring the published results of taxpayer-funded research to
be posted on the Internet in human and machine readable form would provide
access to patients and caregivers, students and their teachers,
researchers, entrepreneurs, and other taxpayers who paid for the research.
Expanding access would speed the research process and increase the return
on our investment in scientific research.

The highly successful Public Access Policy of the National Institutes of
Health proves that this can be done without disrupting the research
process, and we urge President Obama to act now to implement open access
policies for all federal agencies that fund scientific research.

FOSsil Bank Update for 19 May 2012

Chris Sakkas — 2012-05-19T17:43:44

Hi folks,

Another Saturday, another update. Quite a few entries this time.

Re: FOSsil Bank Update for 12 May

Hey Karl,

I *think *I've created an RSS feed that is limited to the new pages on the
FOSsil Bank:

http://www.feedrinse.com/services/rinse/?rinsedurl=dbefeb94b675595652981093a42324c9

One problem is that it doesn't distinguish between new libre entries and
new non-libre shareable entries. I don't think that there's any way around
that.

Thanks for your enthusiasm and suggestions!

Chris

In fight over fair use,Georgia State wins over publishers.

Alex Leavitt — 2012-05-14T01:45:59

http://chronicle.com/article/Long-Awaited-Ruling-in/131859/

A federal judge in Atlanta has handed down a long-awaited ruling in a
lawsuit brought by three scholarly publishers against Georgia State
University over its use of copyrighted material in electronic reserves. The
ruling, delivered on Friday, looks mostly like a victory for the
university, finding that only five of 99 alleged copyright infringements
did in fact violate the plaintiffs' copyrights.

Just reconfirming that I think this is a great idea.  Nice list of stuff
this week!

I'd love to have a panel on QuestionCopyright.org showing the
freely-licensed stuff from each weekly update.  That's a Drupal site, so
I'm sure there are panels that can display (say) and RSS feed, if a feed
ever becomes available.  Not trying to guilt you into it -- just giving
an example of the kind of use that a feed would be put to.

Last chance to fund Tube,a free culture Blender-animated film!

Blender's Open Movie
Projects<http://www.blender.org/features-gallery/blender-open-projects/>
 have already proved that it's possible to produce stunningly high-quality
3D animated films exclusively using free software in a studio setting. Now,
a new animated short film called Tube <http://urchn.org/media>, inspired by
the ancient epic poem of Gilgamesh, is expanding on that work to bring free
culture to the masses. The Tube project is not merely evidence of the
technical capabilities of free software tools like
Blender<http://www.blender.org/>
, PiTiVi <http://www.pitivi.org/>, and Fedora
<http://fedoraproject.org/> GNU/Linux,
but living proof of their viability for independent filmmakers. The most
impressive aspect of the project is that it has managed to come together
through distributed collaboration between 56 artists from 22 countries —
some of which are at war. Tube truly highlights the incredible unifying
power of free software tools and a free culture model.


 <http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1331941187/the-tube-open-movie>


Within the first few days, Tube's Kickstarter
campaign<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1331941187/the-tube-open-movie>
reached
the minimal baseline goal of $22K and subsequently hit
Slashdot<http://news.slashdot.org/story/12/04/22/003217/elephants-dream-director-readies-blender-animated-tube>.
As
the film enters the final stages of production, the Tube team needs as much
support as they can get to make this story a huge success for free
software, free culture, and independent animators everywhere. With the
production funding target of $50K in sight and just a couple days left in
the campaign, this is your last chance to support this ambitious
undertaking and get your name in the film as a backer. There is enormous
potential here; as Mashable questions, 'Will This Open-Source Animated Film
Change the Movie Industry
Forever?<http://mashable.com/2012/04/20/tube-animation/>
'


The film's public release is scheduled for 7 months from now along with all
the assets, source, and project files under the free
culture<http://freedomdefined.org/Definition>
 and copyleft <http://freedomdefined.org/Licenses#Copyleft> Creative
Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) licence. For an in-depth
discussion with the team, check out this interview with the Tube project
founders on Libre Graphics
World<http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/tube-open-movie-founders-on-art-war-and-blender>.
It's up to us now to help Tube affirm the legitimacy of producing free
cultural works in a fully free software workflow.

FOSsil Bank Update for 12 May

Chris Sakkas — 2012-05-12T10:10:38

 Hi folks,

As I mentioned last week, I'll share the works added to the FOSsil Bank
each week on this mailing list. Let me know if this bothers you.

The FOSsil Bank is a wiki that catalogues libre and proprietary shareable
works (free culture, Creative Commons, open content, open source, free
software, open knowledge, open hardware, etc.). This week, several entries
have been added to the wiki:

 New Entries on FOSsil Bank Libre

   -

   The results of the One Page Dungeon Contest
2012<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/work:one-page-dungeon-contest-2012>are
available for download. They’re dungeons designed for tabletop
   roleplaying games (many are in the style of Dungeons & Dragons, but they’re
   rules-free). Gratis PDFs under CC BY-SA.
   -

   Maki <http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/work:maki> is a collection of
   symbols made for the OpenStreetMap project. Each 'thing' has three
   different vector maps based on what resolution it's meant to be displayed
   at (so the most basic 'bike' icon is blocky and simple, while the most
   complicated looks good at a large scale). There are over 70 symbols (in
   three different varieties, for over 220 icons). The licensing is a bit
   confusing - it looks like they're under BSD on one site and CC0 at The Noun
   Project. In any case, they're gratis SVGs.
   -

   You All Meet in a
Tavern<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/work:you-all-meet-in-a-tavern>is
an adventure for the gratis and libre tabletop RPG
   *Critical! Go Westerly*. Gratis PDF under CC BY-SA.

Non-libre shareable works

   - Tale of Navri <http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/work:tale-of-navri> is an
   adventure game set on a skyship. Gratis PDF under CC BY-NC-SA.
   - The creatively-named website
training.gov.au<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/source:training-gov-au>is
a cooperative project between federal, state and territory governments
   in Australia. It's a database on vocational education and training. Gratis
   under CC BY-ND.

That's it for another week. Any questions or comments, or anything you'd
like added to the wiki, let me know!

I agree – and there are lots of projects working on it, to just
mention 2 more web-related ones: http://freedomboxfoundation.org &
http://freenetworkfoundation.org

It‘s a long effort though, and using proprietary servers out of our
control only as distributed commodity storage is definitely a step in
the right direction, also because data is in control of users and not
taken hostage on servers of individual apps.

At the moment though, the perfect is the enemy of the good. Software
freedom should only be a means of people freedom. And having that
software inclusive, visible, usable and interconnected is a
requirement for that.

Re: organizing Free Culture repositories

Patrick Anderson — 2012-05-08T10:09:51

We, the users, must co-own the servers and the
buildings housing those servers, and the ISP connecting
us to those servers, and the factories used to create
those servers, and the power-plants used to power
those servers, and the fields used to supply the food
needed to power our bodies, and the water-rights
needed to grow that food, and the mines needed to
create all the tools needed for those operations, and
all the other parts, recursively, for all the production
needed to continuously recreate our daily needs for
all the things we need.

To leave any of this to corporations that we do not
control is to relinquish control of the planet to those
that must subjugate us in a variety of ways to
perpetuate the scarcity required in their maniacal
quest to keep price above costs.

organizing Free Culture repositories

Jan-Christoph Borchardt — 2012-05-08T09:37:12

We have https://github.com/freeculture
Let me know your usernames so I can add you.


Patrick: regarding Stallman, that's exactly why I work on
http://unhosted.org - whereas many free software people hate on
Javascript, it's actually the solution for free software on the web
because it all runs on your own computer. Hosted "free software" on
the other hand still gives more power to servers - we have to unhost
web apps so the power & logic is at the client, and servers are only
used as stupid, encrypted commodity storage.
Google can not be compared to Github because on Github we don't have
any personal data - everything is open (except the Issues) and
accessible through an open protocol, git. In addition to not covering
any costs, we also don't need to do the work that is maintaining a git
server.

Well, as long as each item in the feed says what type it is (e.g., new
page vs edit page) that's a good start, since the client side can do
filtering then.

Hi Karl,

I've spent a little while trying to find such an option and I'm afraid I
can't find it. There is an option to subscribe to all site changes (
http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/feed/site-changes.xml) but that includes
metadata changes, page edits, etc., not just new pages.

Does anyone know if Wikidot offers a feed for just new pages?

This is great.  I personally don't mind seeing it on the mailing list,
but what would be even better would be some way to subscribe to a feed
directly from the web site.  Doesn't matter whether its straight Atom or
RSS or PubSubHubbub or what -- as long as its an API, people can work
with it.

Does Wikidot offer a way for you to do that?

FOSsil Bank weekly update

Chris Sakkas — 2012-05-05T08:08:52

 Hi folks,

I thought a useful thing I could do to raise the profile of the FOSsil Bank
is make weekly updates of what new entries have been added to the wiki. If
these are inappropriate for this mailing list, let me know and I'll stop
making them. I've also made this update on my
blog,<https://livinglibre1.wordpress.com/2012/05/05/fossil-bank-update-for-5-may/>and
have committed to doing it every week (so there'll be new content on
my
blog every week - I promise!)

Anyway, I hope you find this useful!

New Entries on FOSsil Bank *Libre*

   - *In the Shade of the Commons,
*<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/work:in-the-shade-of-the-commons>a
   collection of articles about bridging the gap between information
   societies. (CC BY-SA; free PDF download)

   images of cameras. (CC BY; free EPS/AI/PNG download)
   - ‘Sharing is

   - *Lunatics * <http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/work:lunatics>is a science

*It’s complicated*

   - David Bollier
<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/source:david-bollier>produces a website
under CC BY and has written a number of books, at least
   one of which is under a proprietary shareable resource licence. (CC BY, CC
   BY-NC; a mix of free and for fee downloads, hardcopies, etc.)
   - ‘Alphonse Maria Mucha – The Complete
Works’<http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/source:alfonse-maria-mucha-the-complete-works>is
a website with many images from Alfons Mucha’s corpus. It purports to
be
   under CC BY-NC-ND, but in practice most (perhaps all) of the images will
   now be in the public domain (I believe; this is not legal advice). (free
   downloads)
