Hello,

As you may have noticed, Roan, Krinkle and me have started to more
tightly integrate image licensing within MediaWiki. Our aim is to
create a system where it should be easy to obtain the basic copyright
information of an image in a machine readable format, as well as
querying images with a certain copyright state (all images copyrighted
by User:XY, all images licensed CC-BY-SA, etc)

At this moment we only intend to store author and license information,
but nothing stops us from expanding this in the future.

We have put some information in a not so structured way at mw.org [1].
There are some issues open on the talk page [2]. Input is of course
welcome, both here or preferably at the talk page.


Bryan
