Deutschsprachige Unterstützung fürs openSUSE Betatesting

Viele von euch haben bestimmt bereits die Milestones der kommenden openSUSE 11.4 ausgetestet. Hin und wieder passieren natürlich auch Dinge in Betaversionen, die nicht passieren sollten. Falls Ihr nun solche Fehler findet, möchtet ihr sie bestimmt gerne loswerden.

Dazu bietet die Community-Plattform von open-slx die Möglichkeit, Fehlerberichte in deutscher Sprache einzureichen. Der dazu erstellte Thread dient dem sammeln dieser Meldungen, und einmal in der Woche werden alle eingereichten Fehlerberichte in Bugzilla eingetragen. Alle Bugs werden bis zur Lösung von uns weiterbetreut. Ebenfalls erhält der Reporter ein Feedback, damit auch er weiß, wie der aktuelle Stand seines Bugs ist.

Wir freuen uns auf eine rege Teilnahme 🙂

How to set up my Blog to the Creative Commons License

Today we had discussed on the opensuse-project List about Copyright and Licenses. So i try to clear this a little bit.

Copyright

Wikipedia says: "Copyright is a set of exclusive rights granted by the law of a jurisdiction to the author or creator of an original work, including the right to copy, distribute and adapt the work. Exceptions and limitations to these rights strive to balance the public interest in the wide distribution of the material produced and to encourage creativity. Exceptions include fair dealing and fair use, and such use does not require the permission of the copyright owner. All other uses require permission and copyright owners can license or permanently transfer or assign their exclusive rights to others."

So we see: Every author or creator of any Document (like a Blog) is automaticly the Copyright Holder. The Copyright Holder can give special permissions for others who using their work.

Free Licenses

Well known free Licenses are the Creative Commons or the GFDL. The GNU General Public License, originally written by Richard Stallman, was the first copyleft license to see extensive use, and continues to dominate the licensing of copylefted software. Creative Commons, a non-profit organization founded by Lawrence Lessig, provides a similar license called ShareAlike.

The Copyright Holder can set one of these licenses to his work. In case of CC-BY-SA all other ppl have now the permission to redistribute the stuff. A little Document in Wikipedia explains the difference between CC and GFDL.

Setup

For CC there is a great Site who gives an little HowTo for integrating the CC into a Blog.

For GFDL is there a little HowTo.
