And would this include, for example, any pics or other things you linked to?  Or just the text of the tweets themselves?

Danyl,

I stated that on my profile (https://twitter.com/#!/Kubke). I thought about it after seeing the cc default on identi.ca and figured it was the right thing to do.

Thanks for your suggestions Richard. A few comments.

This might work where people have an email address which is only used
for making public statements (press releases, emails to public email
lists etc). In any other case it's probably a bad idea, for the
privacy reasons you gave.

Great! I now have a Twitter account, which repeats the notes I post to
my Identi.ca account. Fabiana, how did you go about attaching the CC
license?

>> For situations like Matt's email about the meetup, my feeling is that better practice would be to... put something on a public space (like the CC web page or the Nethui programme), label it with your CC licence, then you're just copying the source in your email and everyone else sees the licence. <<

I agree. Since it makes sense to put announcements about public events
in a publicly visible place(s), it makes sense to include a link to
that place in any emails about the event.

possible privacy issues. <<

In the absence of qualified legal advice, it pays to be cautious, but
it also pays to use common sense. There is just no reason Matt would
want to impose ARR copyright on his email, since it was clearly
intended to promote a public event. I don't know if that makes copying
it 'fair dealing' in a legal sense, but it's obviously 'fair' in a
moral sense.

>> I wouldn't label my email here CC because this is me providing opinion to this list and not necessarily something I would post more publicly, at least not in such a rambling form. <<

I don't want to scare anyone off posting here, but it should be noted
that this email list is a public forum, and its archives are publicly
available, and visible to search engines.

Agreed. Look forward to catching up in person sometime, now that we're
based in the same town :)
