{{incomplete}}

This is just a draft made of ideas to integrate Creative Commons licenses into the Gnome Desktop. A [http://code.google.com/p/gnome-cc-integration/ software repository] has been created to host all patches and plugins still not accepted in the different projects. If you have any patch or piece of code which it's useful to the integration, send it to me (acidborg@gmail.com) and I'll upload it to the repository (only GPL code accepted).

== Find CC licensed contents ==

* '''Search the desktop:''' If [http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2fshared_2dfilemetadata_2dspec Freedesktop's Metadata Spec] is modified to include a "license" field in first class objects specification, [http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Tracker Tracker] could be used to look for CC licensed files within the desktop using [http://raphael.slinckx.net/deskbar/ Deskbar-applet] as front-end. See [http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349356 this bug] for more info.

* '''Search the Internet:''' This can be done using [[Deskbar-Applet CC Search]]

== Publish CC licensed content ==

* [[Publishing of CC licensed Content within Desktop]] integrated into GnomeVFS.

== Applications aware of CC licenses ==

* [[ Inkscape ]]
* Epiphany (with [[ Epiphany CC Extension ]], official since Gnome 2.17)
* Firefox (with [[ MozCC ]] plugin)
* Banshee (with [[CcBanshee]])
* Deskbar Applet (with [[Deskbar-Applet CC Search]])

== Applications which could easily become aware of CC licenses ==

Epiphany CC Extension

Acidborg: Included in Gnome 2.17/2.18

[[Category:Technology]]
[[Category:Developer]]
[[Category:Metadata]]
[[Category:Tools]]

Jaime Frutos Morales developed an extension for the the [http://www.gnome.org/projects/epiphany/ Epiphany web browser] for the [http://gnome.org Gnome desktop] which detects embedded license metadata. If license information is detected the extension adds a (CC) icon to the status bar. Clicking the icon opens the license deed in the browser.

[[Image:Epiphany-cc-license-viewer1.png]]

== Installation ==

It has been included in Gnome 2.17 and will be part of the official Gnome 2.18 release. If you want to install it:

* [http://www.geocities.com/textoplano/cc-license-viewer.tar.gz Download] the extension
* Untar the downloaded file into your Epiphany extensions folder:

$ cd ~/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions
$ tar zxvf /path/to/cc-license-viewer.tar.gz

* Restart Epiphany
* Go to the '''Tools''' menu, and select '''Extensions''' to manage your extensions
* Select the checkbox next to '''Creative Commons license...''', and click '''Close'''.
* Visit a site with embedded metadata, like http://creativecommons.org

Acidborg: Add Gnome Integration link.

[[Category:Developer]]

Integrate finding of CC licensed content directly within the Desktop (think Gnome or KDE integration).

* Extend the [http://yergler.net/projects/cc-spotlight/ CC licensing extractor] for [http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/spotlight/ Spotlight] to support multiple file formats and polish it to release quality. Issues which must be addressed include extractor chaining and packaging.

* Work on [[Gnome Integration]] by sending patches or by completing the list of programs which need CC integration.

== Implementations ==

* Jaime Frutos Morales has created [[Deskbar-Applet CC Search]], an extension for Deskbar Applet for the Gnome Desktop to search for CC licensed content.

* Please add your implementation here :)

== Examples ==

''Please add your example, screenshot, mockup, etc here :)''

[[image:Inkscape-0.44SVN-open-dialog-plus.png]]

'''Open Dialog:''' This is an example Open (find) dialog that could use one's local hard drive or a service (on-line, etc).

[[image:Inkscape-0.44SVN-save-dialog-plus-metadata-exp.png]]

'''Save Dialog + Metadata:''' This shows metadata save dialogs. How could one use these fields to help find content?

[[image:Inkscape-0.44SVN-save-dialog-plus-license-exp.png]]

'''Save Dialog + Licensing:''' This shows licensing dialogs for saving content. How could this be used to help find content on a desktop, web, etc?

'''NOTE:''' The GIMP XCF mockup files used to generate these flattened PNGs are availabe here: http://rejon.org/freelance/creativecommons/img/mockups/

You've probably seen our "some rights reserverd" and "no rights reserved" (for public domain works) buttons on many web pages, but there's more. Whenever a user copies HTML generated by our [http://creativecommons.org/license/ license selection application] they get the button and also a block of metadata describing the licensed work and the license it is offered to the public under. You can't normally see that information without viewing the web page's source. A toolbar or plugin that exploited this hidden information could take many forms. One possibility: If a page has valid license metadata, place a (cc) icon on the toolbar. Mousing over the icon brings up a transient window which displays the [http://creativecommons.org/learn/licenses/ license characteristics] associated with the license and any descriptive metadata also present.

== Mozilla ==

* [[MozCC]]: Extension for [http://mozilla.org Mozilla]-based browsers that adds relevant license characteristic icons to the status bar as you surf and adds a button to the toolbar which allows you to explore associated metadata.
* [http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html?name=creativecommons&submitform=Find%20search%20plugins Mycroft CC Search Plugin]: Adds the [http://search.creativecommons.org Creative Commons search engine] to the list available from [http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ Mozilla Firefox's] toolbar. This plugin is bundled with Firefox 1.0. You can [http://www.creativecommons.org/tools/firefox-search-chooser switch between engines in the Firefox search bar].

== Epiphany ==

* [[Epiphany CC Extension]]: Extension for the [http://www.gnome.org/projects/epiphany/ Epiphany] browser that detects embedded license information and adds a CC license icon to the status bar if a license is present.

== All Browsers ==

Too few Creative Commons plugins for other browsers currently exist. We [http://www.creativecommons.org/technology/challenges#challenge_entry_3848 invite you] to write one. However, these sites will be useful with any browser:

* [http://thewebdesignjournal.com/services/browser-panels/ CC Search Browser Panel]: Adds a panel / sidebar for the [http://search.creativecommons.org/ Creative Commons search engine] to any modern Web browser. Such as [http://opera.com/ Opera], [http://getfirefox.com/ Firefox], [http://browser.netscape.com/ Netscape] and others. More [http://thewebdesignjournal.com/services/browser-panels/help/ info on panels].</li>
* [http://search.creativecommons.org Creative Commons Search Engine]: Allows you to search the web for works that match your licensing and media requirements, mirroring the options available from our [http://www.creativecommons.org/license/ license chooser].
* [http://yergler.net/projects/ccvalidator/ ccValidator]: Inspects and displays license metadata associated with any page.

== Implementations ==

* Nathan Yergler has created [http://www.yergler.net/projects/mozcc/ mozCC], a browser extension for Mozilla-based browsers. It's a start, but we know there are other browser in use.
* Robert Litzke has written [http://www.ug.cs.sunysb.edu/~litzker/scripts/greasemonkCC.user.js greasemonkCC], a Greasemonkey script for all Greasemonkey-enabled browsers. It displays a customizable bar at the top of Creative Commons-tagged pages. GreasemonkCC requires the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/748/ Greasemonkey] extension for Mozilla browsers. Internet Explorer requires a plugin, [http://www.reifysoft.com/turnabout.php Turnabout], for instance, to run Greasemonkey.
* Jaime Frutos Morales has created [http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Epiphany_CC_Extension Creative Commons license viewer], an extension for the Epiphany browser. You can download it from [http://www.geocities.com/textoplano/cc-license-viewer.tar.gz here].
