Hi,

As some of you know I'm currently working on restoring / recreating a
WordPress CC licensing plugin.

During this I've come across an issue which I presume more of you had:

Using one license on a blog or website (aka collection) with multiple
content items (pages, posts, images etc) wherein the individual content
items may or may not have been licensed the same as the website itself
is confusing. How have you solved this issue?

After discussing this with Tarmo we were thinking of solving this issue
by adding some extra (human-readable) text to the license, warning
people that the default for the site is license X, but that an
individual page or post may have a different license. The warning will
only be shown on each page where there are more than one content items
shown. Secondly I'll add a filter which automatically adds the
individual license to the content (using a WordPress hook) so every
single post will display it's own license (or the same license as the
site). Btw I'm not sure how to use the same warning in RDF in such a way
that parsers are also made aware of this (not sure if this would be even
possible given that this might be something part of an individual
parser' implementation).

Suggestions are more than welcome,

grtz
