[Mageia-dev] Fortune Cookies Collections Policy

Fri Jun 15 12:16:30 CEST 2012

Hi all,
+
+I would like to prepare Mageia packages for more UNIX fortune cookies'
+collections (see the fortune-mod program and
+http://www.shlomifish.org/humour/fortunes/ ), but I'm wondering when it is
+acceptable to package them and when it wouldn't be, given that fortune files
+often contain texts and quotes from heterogeneous sources, and licensed under
+various licences (including "All-Rights-Reserved" ones).
+
+For example, can I package the collection here -
+http://www.shlomifish.org/humour/fortunes/ - which is by me and which its 
+blanket licence is the Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike licence
+(CC-by-sa), but which contains text by many authors and under many licences?
+
+I will appreciate any insights.
+
+Regards,
+
+	Shlomi Fish
