Kopyleft Authors

Anything I post on the internet is public domain.

I am Kopyleft unless stated otherwise. Ⓚ

In light of the recent Intellectual Property discussions, we should probably restart this thread and ask people which license they want to use. That should alleviate some of our future IP issues.

or not

Fuck you, thief.

I've never been really comfortable with the whole kopyleft idea.  I mean for one liner memes eh so what but for rants and the like, those should never be reproduced by anyone other than the author without written permission.

Discordian or not it's a simple matter of fucking respect for the author.

Using without permission, especially in a money making effort is stealing and grimey as hell.

just to counterpoint - some of us WANT our work reproduced, reposted, expanded, elaborated on - we like to see our output appear in collages and derivative works and music and whatever else people are inspired to create. We don't care to manage who has permission and who doesn't, some of us don't care about being credited, and many of us don't even care if you can sell it and make a buck or two off it.

Roger's work is copyrighted, that's his choice, and the fact that somebody doesn't want to respect that has no bearing on Kopyleft.

^ This. I can't see myself releasing anything but rants under kopyleft, and I already allow my photos to be used under creative commons. I don't mind if people use my stuff, so long as I get credit.

This is a pretty good spot to plug the "kopyleft / creative commons art" thread. If you've got material (visual arts) you want to make available, come let us know. It's also a good spot to look if you're trying to find images for some project.

you know, we should really have a WEBSITE that archives our cc / (k) material...

Yatto is not representative of, or a reflection on, the Kopyleft argument.

I'll go on record and state that anything of mine that qualifies as a "rant", or anything that is specifically related to Discordia and/or the culture of this forum (my Doktor threads, for instance), is Kopyleft.

Anything else I write may or may not be, you should probably ask. I'll most likely say yes.

Notable exception: Bring and Brag. If I put something in there without specifically saying it's Kopyleft, assume it isn't. If you really, really want to use it, go ahead and ask, but the answer will probably be no.

[Phox]

I'd like to make an addendum to my statement, if necessary: Everything I do for the Spiders projects including both writings and recordings are LMNO's to do with and distribute as he pleases.

I'm too lazy to try to figure out if that statement is actually necessary, but I made it, and there will be no retractions.
