Hey all,

I've been thinking recently about the issue that Creative Commons does not specify a copyleft license which would require the distribution of "source form" for art that has a source form seperate from its distribution form. Examples could be: images/videos rendered from blender models, PDFs rendered from LaTeX, music in audio files that was originally created in a sequencer, etc.

CC-BY-SA does not really require that derivatives that then get "compiled" must provide anything like a source offer along with their distribution.

I'm wondering if GPLv3 or other strong copyleft licenses in existance would have the desired effect when appiled to art? I know the GPL was very specifically written for software, but with very similar goals.
