Development of Creative Commons licenses

Hi everybody,

Some time back, I had raised a similar issue where I described a
situation in which a wiki article under CC-NC was published in a
newspaper. The general consent on this list was that this is a
violation, even though the newspaper is not making money directly from
that one article.

In your case, the money is much higher than what a newspaper costs and
while the charge is for bandwidth, I believe that it is a violation
since they are making money from a situation where your CC-NC property
is being used.

Again, I am not a lawyer nor CC.

hey christoph,

the relevant intention as to what NC means here is yours - if you
feel that this is a commercial use then you can argue that it is.

two things that may assist you - in the recent Dutch case about the
applicability of CC licenses held that a commercial publisher
violated the NonCommercial license limitation when they used CC NC
licensed images in a magazine that was then sold to the public. <snip>
