- Subject: [ccAustralia] Oz budget under CC
- Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 12:17:50 +1000
Those interested in open PSI will be excited to know that
the Australian budget delivered last night was released
under a Creative Commons Attribution licence. Following the strong support for open access
in the government's response
to the Gov 2.0 report last week, this
is a great show of the government putting its money where its mouth is (sorry,
I couldn't resist). In fact, the last week has seen the release of three major
Federal Government reports - the Budget, the Gov 2.0 response and the NBN
Implementation Study - all under CC licences. This seems to be a great
indicator that the government really means what it says - open access is going
to be the default position for the Australian Federal Government from now on. I’d love to see an artistic mashup of the budget
document – anyone? Jessica Coates Project Manager Creative Commons Australia |
