The whole ethos of Ubuntu is to build something that is legal to share, legal to modify, legal to sell, libre (free as in freedom). In exchange for these freedoms, most of the licences used in Ubuntu have two requirements: 1. To credit: ie. to not misrepresent who made the component 2. To share-alike: to pass on the same permissions/requirements This is what Free Software, Wikipedia, and OpenStreetMap are all about. In Ubuntu we use the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG) tests to see what is acceptable for inclusion: http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines For content, CC-Zero, CC-BY or CC-BY-SA can be used. CC-*-ND and CC-*-NC cannot be used in Ubuntu, as they discriminate. -Paul -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~unity-design Post to : unity-design@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~unity-design More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
