A page for trademarks and attributions covering what is needed for openliberty.io including the guides.

An idea is that this may be a link in the footer section next to License and Privacy Policy and link out to GitHub like how we are doing it for License.

@yeekangc can you provide more details of what you have in mind that needs to be listed on such a page

cajaygle commented 5 years ago

Check out the Kabanero.io similar page.

yeekangc commented 4 years ago

IIRC, this covers:

List Open Liberty trademarks or artifacts like logos and identify usage considerations
List content provided by Open Liberty like guides, blogs etc and identify reuse and attribution considerations

A page that one can easily look at and work out what they need to do if they would like to use/reuse.

yeekangc commented 4 years ago

Not sure if @lauracowen will recall additional details/background?

yeekangc commented 4 years ago

These are probably examples:

Part of this is likely duplicate of https://github.com/OpenLiberty/openliberty.io/issues/1212.

yeekangc commented 4 years ago

If #1212 covers branding assets, this would be for content assets like blogs, guides and what's else is there on the website. Things that aren't source code, which is covered by licenses on GH.

Not sure if I'm answering the right question (sorry, I didn't follow all the discussion about this on Thursday)...

From a trademarks perspective, I don't know what trademarks we have but we should probably follow the IBM guidelines (ID or @NottyCode will know where to find them).

Licensing - our non-source code assets are covered by Creative Commons in the other repositories, so we should probably do the same for these shouldn't we? But maybe a more restrictive one if we want to limit usage more? CC allows you to provide a page of other allowed uses in addition to whatever the licence says.
