<para>Proposal for revised license and license requirements.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>David Lawyer proposed modifying both the LDP Boilerplate License and the
|
||||
Manifesto for the purpose of allowing modification to documents in all cases
|
||||
where the author can't be located. David, initiating the discussion, said,
|
||||
<quote>While I support the right of an author (in some cases) to not allow
|
||||
modification without the author's consent, what about the case where the
|
||||
document needs revision and author can't be located? I think our manifesto
|
||||
needs to be changed to require that any license must allow modification if the
|
||||
author can't be located after searching on the Internet.</quote> He said that a
|
||||
no-modify option to The LDP's Boilerplate License be included with it, to be
|
||||
effective only if the author selects this option: Modification would be
|
||||
prohibited unless the author can't be located. Furthermore, while LDP would
|
||||
permit this option we would not encourage it as is currently stated in the
|
||||
manifesto: "It is not required that the documents be modifiable, but it is
|
||||
encouraged." Further, people had comments on David's proposal. The archive
