How do you share
Responding to an inquiry about the copyright of materials on my site, I wrote back:
Everything original on my website is for free, non-commerical use with attribution. Of course there are things I link to that have different copyright schemes, but in general I only link to resources that are also freely shared. You should of course acknowledge those sources distinctly (sometimes people say “I found this on Chris Corrigan’s website” but what they really found was a link to another source. That’s not fair to the original authors). Formally, it’s a Creative Commons, non-commerical, attribution license. Practically, it means that you can do anything you want with those materials as long as you attribute my original work to me and you don’t sell it. Basically, I ask people to err on the side of sharing. In other words, share first and ask permission later!
How do you share your stuff?
