@engenia are you ok with website footer " License: CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 2022 © Errol Kowald, Michael Holzer." ?

Engenia commented 1 year ago

That's fine by me Michael, although, since this will be editable by anyone with authority, I wonder if it should be limited to us alone.

regards Errol

Very valid question I read https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/blog/copyright-notices-in-open-source-software-projects and other articles on this topic.

Maybe extending the copyright notice to read "© Errol Kowald, Michael Holzer and project contributors" would address this. What is your view?

Engenia commented 1 year ago

My first thought was, should I even claim copyright? Afterall, much of what I present was gleaned from the forum directly, or developed from discussions there.

I note that the article you referenced stated that there was no need to claim copyright, to define ownership. This makes sense in the current case. I claimed no copyright in the past but no-one would deny that the site was created by me. An acknowledgement as the originator of the document is more than enough for me, and probably more than necessary.

I think that you should certainly claim copyright, not for the content, but for the code/development of the new platform.

If contributors want to claim copyright for their efforts that is their right.
