> CREATIVE COMMONS LAUNCHES CC0 AND CC+ PROGRAMS
>
> San Francisco — December 17, 2007
>
> Today, Creative Commons announced the launch of CC0 (aka CC Zero) and
> CC+ (aka CC Plus). These programs are major additions to CC's array of
> free legal tools.
>
> CC+
>
> CC+ is a protocol to enable a simple way for users to get rights
> beyond the rights granted by a CC license. For example, a Creative
> Commons license might offer noncommercial rights. With CC+, the
> license can also provide a link to enter into transactions beyond
> access to noncommercial rights — most obviously commercial rights, but
> also services of use such as warranty and ability to use without
> attribution, or even access to physical media.
>
> "Imagine you have all of your photos on Flickr, offered to the world
> under the CC Attribution-NonCommercial license," said Lawrence Lessig,
> CEO of Creative Commons. "CC+ will enable you to continue offering
> your work to the public for noncommercial use, but will also give you
> an easy way to sell commercial licensing rights to those who want to
> use your work for profit."
>
> The CC+ architecture was pioneered by early adopter CC-enabled
> businesses such as Magnatune.com and is effectively implemented by
> numerous creators and intermediaries who enable a simple way to move
> between the sharing and commercial economies. CC+ provides a
> lightweight standard around these best practices and is available for
> implementation immediately.
>
> Creative Commons will collaborate with commercial rights agencies and
> other companies to build upon CC's metadata architecture and give the
> public simple "click-through" access to commercial rights and other
> opportunities beyond the scope of a public CC license. Companies and
> organizations announcing support for CC+ include Yahoo!, Blip.tv,
> Beatpick, Jamendo, Pump Audio, RightsAgent, Youlicense, Strayform,
> Cloakx, and Copyright Clearance Center.
>
> "The CC+ initiative adds an exciting new dimension that enables a
> commercial element to co-exist within the Creative Commons framework,"
> said Rudy Rouhana, co-founder of RightsAgent, Inc — provider of a new
> service that automates licensing to permit re-use and monetization of
> user-generated content. "RightsAgent is delighted to be one of the
> first companies to implement the CC+ standard. The working
> relationship between RightsAgent and Creative Commons now provides
> both a transactional and commercial layer that will help further the
> success of Creative Commons and the success of this initiative," said
> Rouhana.
>
> CC0
>
> CC0 is a protocol that enables people to either (a) ASSERT that a work
> has no legal restrictions attached to it, or (b) WAIVE any rights
> associated with a work so it has no legal restrictions attached to it,
> and (c) SIGN the assertion or waiver.
>
> "In some ways, CC0 is similar to what our public domain dedication
> does now," said Lessig. "But with CC0, the waiver of rights will be
> more robust internationally, and both the waiver and assertion will be
> vouched for, so that there is a platform for reputation systems to
> develop. People will then be able to judge the reliability of
> content's copyright status based on who has done the certifying."
>
> CC0 was previewed at Creative Commons' 5th birthday event this past
> weekend in San Francisco. A beta version of the protocol will be
> released for public discussion on January 15, 2008. This will include
> the traditional components of the CC architecture — legal code,
> human-readable explanation, machine-readable metadata, and tools. The
> Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School will
> collaborate with Creative Commons on drafting the legal code for CC0.
>
> In conjunction with the CC0 announcement, Creative Commons' project
> Science Commons launched the "Protocol for Implementing Open Access
> Data" — a method for ensuring that scientific databases can be legally
> integrated with one another. The protocol is built on the public
> domain status of data in many countries (including the United States)
> and provides legal certainty to both data deposit and data use.
> Science Commons has worked with data licensing thought leaders and is
> pleased to announce partnerships with Jordan Hatcher and Dr. Charlotte
> Waelde, the legal team behind the Open Database License; Talis, the
> company behind the Open Database License process; and the Open
> Knowledge Foundation, creators of the Open Knowledge Definition.
>
> "The 'freedom to integrate' is one of the fundamental freedoms for
> data on the Web, and in one stroke, the Science Commons protocol
> integrates the primary legal options around data into a single Open
> Access regime," said John Wilbanks, Vice President for Science
> Commons. Data in the sciences is most useful when it's in the public
> domain, like the human genome and all the information at the US
> National Center for Biotechnology Information. This protocol, and its
> implementation by Talis and the Open Database License, creates a legal
> tool for data creators to put their data into the same legal zone as
> the genome and other key fundamental research resources."
>
> "We've recognized the importance of Open Access data at Talis for a
> number of years, and it was an obvious step for us to work with Jordan
> Hatcher and Dr. Charlotte Waelde to validate our earlier efforts and
> to place them in a sound legal framework from which others could also
> benefit," said Dr. Paul Miller, Talis' Technology Evangelist. "Looking
> at CC0 and the Creative Commons' Science Commons project, the
> synergies with our own license development were immediately apparent.
> We shall now be working together with Creative Commons and the
> license's new hosts at the Open Knowledge Foundation to see the pool
> of remixable data grow, for the benefit of all."
>
> About Creative Commons
>
> Creative Commons is a not-for-profit organization, founded in 2001,
> that promotes the creative re-use of intellectual and artistic works,
> whether owned or in the public domain. Through its free copyright
> licenses, Creative Commons offers authors, artists, scientists, and
> educators the choice of a flexible range of protections and freedoms
> that build upon the "all rights reserved" concept of traditional
> copyright to enable a voluntary "some rights reserved" approach.
> Creative Commons was built with and is sustained by the generous
> support of organizations including the Center for the Public Domain,
> the Omidyar Network, The Rockefeller Foundation, The John D. and
> Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and The William and Flora Hewlett
> Foundation, as well as members of the public. For more information
