Hi debian-legal, (please CC me if reply, thanks)
I'm maintaining a package and encountered some copyright issues, I believe here is the right place to ask for help :-) There are many quotes/paragraphs from famous people on wikiquote.org, and I'd like to cherry-pick some of those content (they are distributed under CC-BY SA 3.0) into the package I am maintaining. At first I thought ignoring the license issue is ok, as the content I chose is *definitely* known by most people, and, does anyone possesses the copyright of creations of old/ancient leterator ? I think no. However, those content were collected, edited, and verified by wikipedia/wikiquotes ... I can patiently read https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ and specify the CC-BY SA 3.0 licence in file debian/copyright, but what to fill in copyright file? wikiquote.org? Thank you, sincerely. -- Regards, C.D.Luminate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-legal-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
