send them an email. then sending another stating the first was a mistake and ask that they return it.

drew Roberts laurelrusswurm

works with that sort of protection should be required to be "hidden" from public perception. they pollute the public sphere.

drew Roberts

kudos, that is one mean groaner.

drew Roberts

You want mannybugs, manlybugs, or gentlemanbugs?

drew Roberts Glyn Moody

one way to find out who did it!

drew Roberts Glyn Moody

my guess is that it is not too complicated, it just wouldn't suit either pf the parties fighting this out. only good for the public.

drew Roberts Glyn Moody

The law could take a middle ground: only allow the use of such "orphan" works in copyleft works.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

but that other person would not have standing to bring the suit. or could they bring it so long as someone participating has standing?

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

right but, with bad intentions, I could just offer license for two pennies and give you one. I need to be able to be bound somehow.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

could you instead give a guarantee to bring a suit should the licensee fund it? problems?

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

shouldn't really be. We can have a photo of a sculpture, a sketch of the same, and a copy in the same or another substance, etc.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

so, if you and I co-write a a song say, can we each issue licenses to others without the permission or approval of the other?

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

you destroy the actual work that is even though you may make a new work in its place. Well with enough mods at least.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

So, when I make a one off sculpture and license it #copyleft-next ? Is it its own source? If you make modifications to it, you destroy it.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

could you assign everyone a co-ownership while somehow restricting them for issuing *other* licenses without your approval?

drew Roberts Bradley M. Kuhn

I think that assumes that everyone is not a co-owner of the copyrights.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

i do, if we can get a good definition for source re non-code.

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

#copyleft-next covers music, person pays a statutory license to make a non-Free cover. work goes out of copyleft?

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

could we just speel out that source is not required for non-code or at least non-digital?

drew Roberts Richard Fontana

@fontana - could there be some way to give licensees of #copyleft-next the standing they would need to get source on their own initiative?
