Re: Blog post about Freed.in Day 1

Dear shirish,

yes, you do need to mention the three things under each authored work.
This is how it works, irrespective of copyright or copyleft or CC.
It is tedious, but correct.
Your other choice, is to only use Images in the public-domain, where
no such restrictions apply, or to seek written permission from each
author to deviate from this correct protocol, or to use your own
authored works, or to outright purchase or negotiate ownership of
authored works so you have full liberty to do as you please.

regards
n

I tried using the method outlined but it causes a somewhat broken page.

If it's that tough, just put a URL to the original photo as a caption.  
Also may help to mention someplace that all the photos were licensed 
under an open licence when you downloaded them, and if the licence has 
changed subsequently you'd be willing to remove the offending pic(s) if 
notified.

Sorry to hear that.  I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader to 
determine whether it was meant to be humour or intimidation.

I don't know if you have written that 'take' down somewhere, but it
would be interesting to know more about that. The rationale is that
there must be a reason why you feel comfortable CC licensing your
mails to the mailing lists and, if that reason is put down somewhere
it would perhaps lead to a discussion rather than the shotgun-scatter
discussions across mailing lists.

Hi all,

Dear Shirish,

I read your posts about freed.in day-2. A few things I wish to point
out regarding your take on my talk.

From your post http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com/2009/02/27/freed-day-2/

>The real story which he forgot was that the year after, ERNET was up and shell accounts were >starting to
give people which dried up the business of BBS overtime.

Not something I forgot but was actually aware of. It would've made
sense to include, if I was giving an elaborate account of the
"business" history of BBS overtime. My whole point was how people got
together on the boards(i cant call it the internet :-)) for speaking
against something they didn't like or thought was unfair and how it
actually resulted in action on ground. My not including or as you say
"forgetting" what happened to the BBS "business" after that does not
dispute my claim in any way. Also, I thought it to be irrelevant to

ok convinced, now need some help with the coding part of the same.
This is the code that has been generated by flickr.

<td><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/69859207 <at> N00/3307889771/"
title="prof. Andrew Lynn by shirishag75, on Flickr"><img
src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3545/3307889771_20174d0ffc_o.jpg"
width="683" height="1024" alt="prof. Andrew Lynn" /></a></td>

The above code is of Prof. Andrew Lynn taken by ramkrishna.  Now I do
not know of a way
in which I can have this sort of code being automatically generated
from ramky's photostream which bears his CC stuff as well.

A demonstrable example with code how it was accomplished would be nice.

Re: Blog post about Freed.in Day 1

Dear shirish,

no need to generate code. Just add static text.
Like you see in the credits of a movie or tv documentary, a magazine
colophon, a calendar, and anywhere else where authored works need
credit, copyright, and licensed text.

it's my pleasure to accept your thanks in advance for explaining all
this to you so persistently and patiently. For any other
clarifications there is google.

Atm I have done some stuff so when hovers over the image, one knows
who the author of the image is as well as under what license as being suggested
on the list. Have also put up a static text, is it good enough.

Btw who is the author of the raised hands photo on the freed.in blog entry
