Developer discussion for Creative Commons technology and tools

["Daniel Arcoverde" <dfarcoverde AT gmail.com>]

Nathan, 
 
    1. I will write my proposal. But I take a doubt, when you say "Tracking image source information in documents: in addition to pulling images", you mean an additional (plus)? I mean, in addition to what was proposed by the CC, add more this feature. Talk a little more about this feature.
   2. Moreover, I need to know if CC find interesting a plug-in for Eclipse which would allow the developer to add the CC license to code. 
   3. If so, I will try to prepare 2 proposals. One for each idea above, unless you recommend me just one.

Thanks

Two proposals for Flickr+OOo have come in thus far; I'd rate both as
average (although I've only skimmed them).  I'll read/give feedback on
anything you send by 5pm PDT Sunday, March 30.

A couple other ideas that come to mind:

* Tracking image source information in documents: in addition to
pulling images from a web source such as flickr, store the source and
attribution information in the document.  I'm not sure what the
appropriate scope of this is -- Draw? All of OOo? Something else
entirely?
* Add DAM (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_asset_management)-like
features to an existing media management application (ie, rich
metadata support, etc)
* Build on the DAM project CC did last year
(http://code.google.com/p/cc-dam)... it's super rough, super simple
but maybe someone else has ideas about how to build it out.
