AlanKelon: Books reordered by descending order

[[Category:Text]]
[[Category:List]]
[[Category:Media]]
[[Category:Licensed]]

A list of Creative Commons-licensed books.

By "book" we generally mean works over 35,000 words that are or have been commercially available in hardcopy and have an ISBN. We've expanded the definition in two added sections below, however, to include the most popular books published through do-it-yourself press Lulu, and "books" published on websites of established organizations or notable blogs.

This is just a start and is woefully incomplete. Please add missing titles and fill in missing information.

AlanKelon: Added "How Open is the Future?"

[[Category:Text]]
[[Category:List]]
[[Category:Media]]
[[Category:Licensed]]

A list of Creative Commons-licensed books.

By "book" we generally mean works over 35,000 words that are or have been commercially available in hardcopy and have an ISBN. We've expanded the definition in two added sections below, however, to include the most popular books published through do-it-yourself press Lulu, and "books" published on websites of established organizations or notable blogs.

This is just a start and is woefully incomplete. Please add missing titles and fill in missing information.

<div class="split-half">

The primary goal of the Creative Commons Developer Community (CCDC) is to build a community of developers around the development of tools facilitating Creative Commons' licenses and standards. You can help by accepting one of our [[Developer Challenges]].

* Build infrastructure around Creative Commons licenses
* Build infrastructure around Creative Commons standards

== Get Involved ==

* [[HOWTO Patch|Submit a Patch]]
* [[Translator|Translate projects into different languages]]

== Documentation ==

* [[Choose license|Choosing Licenses]]
* [[License Wrappers|Reading Licenses]]
* [[HOWTO Patch|HOWTO Create, Apply and Submit Patches]]
* [[Translating ccHost]] - Help localize for your language
* [[Coding Style]] - General coding guidelines and settings

== Discussion ==

== Projects ==

Creative Commons actively develops the following software projects:

* [[ccPublisher]]
* [[ccHost]] ([[ccMixter]] source code)
* [[Translator]] - http://translate.creativecommons.org/
* [[ccLookup]]
* [[Command Line Tools]]
* [[ccNutch]]

Also see the [[:Category:Tools|Tools Category Index]] for links to additional projects. Code for our projects is hosted at [http://sourceforge.net/projects/cctools Sourceforge.net] or [[CcTools Berlios|Berlios.de]]; see the [[Source Repository Policy]] for information on contributing code or starting a new project. See the [[Source Repository Information]] page for general information about the available modules and how to check them out from source control.

=== Supporting Projects ===

We also maintain several library projects which are reused in some of our applications:

* [[License Wrappers]] language-specific wrappers for representing and manipulating license information
* [[Creative Commons Web Services]]
* [[Web Services Client Implementations]]
* [[pyArchive]]
* [[Ajax License Chooser]]
* [[libfeedback]]

=== Exploratory Projects ===

The projects below are currently being discussed or explored:
* [[Developer Challenges]] - a long list of challenges set for exploration
* [[Content Aggregation]]
* [[libcclicense]] - an abstract library for implementing license support (C-library)
* [[Dream CC Tool]] - A discussion of the "ideal" CC tool; possibly the successor to ccPublisher?
* [[Development Ideas]] - A collection of nascent ideas for CC-enabled tools. As these become more fleshed out, they'll be moved to their own pages.

Source Repository Information

2007-03-31T17:43:42Z

AlanKelon: Added CCNutch entry

[[Category:Developer]]

Creative Commons uses Subversion repositories at Sourceforge and [[CcTools Berlios|Berlios.de]] for maintaining project source code. Subversion (svn) clients are included with Linux and Mac OS X. Windows users can use [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ Tortoise SVN].

== Available Modules ==

The Sourceforge Subversion repository contains the following modules:

<table align="left" valign="top" style="float:none;">
<tr><th>module name </th><th>description</th></tr>
<tr><td>api </td><td>Web services, generalized chooselicense.xsl implementation</td></tr>
<tr><td>api_client </td><td>Sample client implementation</td></tr>
<tr><td>cchost </td><td>The code for ccmixter.org and other ccHost installations</td></tr>
<tr><td>cci </td><td>Code for supporting iCommons web-sites; currently a Word Press theme. In development.</td></tr>
<tr><td>cclookup </td><td>[[CcLookup|CC Lookup]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>ccnutch </td><td>[[CcNutch| Creative Commons plugin for the open source Nutch search engine]]</td></tr>
<tr><td>ccpublisher1 </td><td>ccPublisher 1.x</td></tr>
<tr><td>ccpublisher2 </td><td>ccPublisher 2 '''DEPRECATED''' ''Development for this project has moved to Berlios.de''</td></tr>
<tr><td>ccrdf </td><td>Python library for modeling licenses in RDF.</td></tr>
<tr><td>cctagutils </td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td>cli_tools </td><td>Command-line based tools for embedding and reading licenses.</td></tr>
<tr><td>desktop_search </td><td>Desktop search tools; Spotlight plugin for Mac OS X.</td></tr>
<tr><td>experimental </td><td>Experimental code, i18n (internationalization), test, and miscellaneous bits</td></tr>
<tr><td>pyarchive </td><td>Python library for uploading works to the Internet Archive</td></tr>
<tr><td>vendor_libs </td><td>Vendor libraries that are used by other projects. Modules are imported here if the project doesn't use svn, so we can use svn:externals, or if additional customization is required.</td></tr>
<tr><td>widgets</td><td>Widgets for visualizing CC content and information.</td></tr>
<tr><td>xmp </td><td>Tools for embedding [[XMP]] metadata in PDF, JPEG and (future) other file types.</td></tr>
<tr><td>zope_products </td><td>CC developed zope products: the license engine, Plone skin and iStr.</td></tr>
<tr><td>__cvs_import </td><td>Data from the import from CVS that was either deprecated, crufted, or wrong.</td></tr>
</table>

== Checking Out Source ==

=== From Sourceforge ===

The Sourceforge Subversion repository is accessed over https. You can check out the entire repository (all projects, branches, tags, trunk and all; not recommended) with the following command:

$ svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cctools

For a particular project, we specify a specify module. For example, the following command can be used to check out the trunk of CcHost into a directory named <code>cchost</code>:

$ svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cctools/cchost/trunk cchost

Note that a username and password is only required when performing a write operation to the repository. Subversion will prompt for a password as needed. If Subversion prompts for a password for the incorrect username, simply press Enter, and Subversion will prompt for the username.

=== From Berlios ===

See the [http://developer.berlios.de/svn/?group_id=5272 ccTools Subversion Information] page for details on checking out code hosted at Berlios (ccPublisher).

CcNutch

2007-03-31T17:38:24Z

AlanKelon: minor changes

[[Category:CcNutch]]
[[Category:opensource]]
[[Category:Technology]]
[[Category:Developer]]

Creative Commons plugin for the open source [http://nutch.org Nutch] search engine. Module ccnutch in the cctools [[Source_Repository_Information|sourceforge repository]].

There '''was''' a running instance at http://search.creativecommons.org. Commercial search engines support CC well enough now that it was turned off. http://search.creativecommons.org now offers a selection of these. Nutch may be revived if we want to explore search features that do not yet have commercial interest.

==Build==

todo

==Crawl==

todo

==TODO==

* Fill in documentation above
* Add feature requests here
* Update CCNutch plugin for current Nutch version (may be no-op apart from testing)
* Add support for parsing RDFa (currently embedded RDF/XML is supported)
* Add support for indexing assertions about objects other than the current document (eg image, audio, video).
* Add support for indexing specific attribution metadata
