Dear Movses,

Many thanks for the prompt answer. I appreciate all your comments and I think we are in agreement with every detail.

For the sake of clarification, I just want to be sure that I understand things correctly :-))

In the definitions, you have the term "derivative work" separated into two subsections, i) adaptations and ii) collections. Therefore, any time you refer to derivative work in the license you automatically refer to adaptations and collections and you don't need to have a separate license grant allowing to distribute and communicate adaptations. Is this what you have in mind and is my understanding correct? If so, then the BY-NC is drafted differently, meaning referring to adaptations and collections separately and independently, which I found (personally) clearer.

Let me know if I am mistaken - and what you think. In any case, we should be clear and consistent, at least in the final version in Armenian.

Best

Catharina

Dear Movses,

Thank you very much for sending the amended license drafts!! Everything looks fine to me, I just found some very small questions which might only show up in the English versions but I wanted to make sure that everything is then complete and corrected in the final licenses in Armenian.

All licenses:

Preamble: Even if we have already discussed this section, I feel I have to get back to it. The second sentence now reads "The rights of the licensor with respect to his/her work are protected by the republic of armenia law on copyright and related rights (hereinafter referred to as law), and/or other applicable law." I find the addition in brackets slightly confusing since in the same sentence the term "law" is mentioned and would then - strictly speaking - mean that this is a reference to the Armenian law again? I think we should just delete the addition term in (brackets).
Actually you are right I will delete that.

BY-NC-SA

License Grant: Section 3d) is missing?
I tracked back and found the following from the first draft (with substantiation)

d. to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations. [Point ā€œdā€ is deleted because both collections and adaptations are Derivative Works that are mentioned in the point ā€œcā€ above].
It seemed to me that provision of point "d" is successfully implemented in the previous (point c of Section 3). However, you are right.

The point "b" as in the unported version is as follows: "to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations." is it correct or I should change "Adaptations" to "Derivative works" ?

BY-NC

In the license grant the term "adaptations" is used instead of "derivative work". I understand that this is only the English retranslation and this might have already been corrected in the original Armenian licenses but I wanted to kindly emphasize that this should be drafted carefully and consistently.
You mean point "d"? If yes I have already changed that.

Please let me know your thoughts. If you agree with the above mentioned comments, it would be nice to have the English versions finally complete in our files before we move forward and start working on the xhtml in Armenian.

Once again, thanks you very much for your time and energy on this project! I am very much looking forward to seeing the Armenian licenses go live!

Best regards,

Catharina
