</I>><i> Using Creative Commons licenses is an excellent option. But the
</I>><i> NC/Non-Commercial clause is a no-go. It makes the thing licensed
</I>><i> totally incompatible (in spirit and in detail) with FSF/OSI definition
</I>><i> of free software/open source - thus makes redistribution/derivatives
</I>><i> of the Mageia platform (and that's not what we want for the
</I>><i> distribution).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> CC-By-SA is perfectly acceptable on the other hand (that's what would
</I>><i> be the most like sort of a GPL translated for non-software works - and
</I>><i> we use it for the wiki).
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I dunno, something about doing lots of hard work for a good cause
</I>><i> because we want to, and then somebody else packaging it for profit? That
</I>><i> rankles.
</I>><i> I realize that CC-By-SA is more to the spirit of GPL, but it still rankles.
</I>><i> Also, isn't Mageia a not-for-profit foundation? Who would redistribute
</I>><i> the artwork for profit? Other devels/artists? That's even worse!
</I>><i> The point of allowing commercial software to be GPL'd (as I understand
</I>><i> it) is to allow devels to profit from their hard work. But if we "work
</I>><i> for" a not-for-profit organization, and we don't want any profit from
</I>><i> the work anyway, then there's no point in allowing commercial
</I>><i> redistribution!
</I>><i>
</I>
Hmm. What about a small company overs Mageia in a box and uses the money
to pay developers who are working on mageia? The NC would hinder that?
