Developer discussion for Creative Commons technology and tools

[Blaise Alleyne <blaise AT alleyneinc.net>]

Hello,

I have just submitted a proposal for the Google Summer of Code to update 
the Drupal Creative Commons module.[0] Feedback would be greatly 
appreciated!

I'm looking for feedback on two things in particular.

I'm especially concerned about feedback for the second phase of my 
proposal. I had imagined that I could first update the module to support 
the latest version of Drupal, and then begin implementing liblicense 
support. But, as I've looked into liblicense, it doesn't appear that 
there are PHP bindings available yet. Is it worth keeping this in the 
proposal, or, given the current absence of PHP bindings, is that another 
GSoC project in and of itself?

Second, on the Creative Commons module page, there is a note: "This 
module will soon be updated for Drupal 6 for Denver Open Media 
<http://www.denveropenmedia.org/> as part of a generous grant from the 
Knight News Challenge 
<http://www.newschallenge.org/tools_for_public_access_tv>." I am about 
to email Denver Open Media for feedback as well, but I am hoping that my 
development efforts can work in conjuction with theirs, as there is a 
lot of development to be done (more features for Drupal 6, soon support 
for Drupal 7, the liblicense support idea, etc...). I hope that effort 
can be combined, rather than duplicated, if we're working on the same 
module. Does this make sense? Or is that a serious concern?

Thanks,
Blaise Alleyne
