This page is part of the Copyright section for CPDL. See individual pages for details and conditions. |
Some editions on CPDL are released under a Creative Commons license. There are many different types of license so to know what you can and cannot do with the edition, visit the pages linked to below. If you can't find a direct link to the license below, search from the Creative Commons home page. All licenses require that the author and the licensing terms are correctly mentioned in case of redistribution, but differ in the licensing terms as described below.
Attribution
The "Attribution" only license is the "freest" Creative Commons license, which allows free use and the creation of derivative works (e.g. arrangements).
This is roughly equivalent to the BSD license for software.
Attribution 1.0
Attribution 2.5
Attribution 3.0 Unported
Specific national jurisdictions
Attribution 2.5 Australia
Attribution 3.0 Germany
The "Attribution-Share Alike" license also allows free use, but requires that derivative works are also distributed under the Share-Alike license.
This is roughly equivalent to the GNU General Public license for software.
Specific national jurisdictions
Attribution-Noncommercial
The other licenses either forbid free usage ("Noncommercial") or the creation of derivative works ("No Derivative Works") or both. So "Noncommercial - No Derivative Works" is quite close to "All rights reserved".
Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 Unported
Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 2.0 Generic
Specific national jurisdictions
Attribution-Noncommercial 2.5 Australia
Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 2.5 Australia
