CCID-rolandalton: 4th Salon event added

CC alps Salon

2012-10-18T06:08:12Z

CCID-rolandalton:

The CC Alps Salon is a series of events related to Creative Commons in the alpine region.

It started in 2008 with the net culture lab in collaboration with Creative Commons Austria in order to encourage networking within the'creative industry. The event distinguishes itself for associating people of different divisions such as lawyers, economists, artists. in order to provide a deeper
understanding of the needs and perspectives of every branch.
Beside the information exchange, we want to offer a relaxed atmosphere bringing the people surrounding Creative Commons together. Another aim is to encourage people who are interested in free content to visit this event to provide an insight into the ideas of the performers and also to get the chance
to exchange ideas and experiences.

So far, the events have taken place in Vienna, Dornbirn and Linz in order to grant accessibility to people living on in the western and eastern part of Austria. Our Swiss friends are invited to join the Creative Commons alps Salon in Dornbirn or accounce their own alps salon below.

{{Infobox|
CC Salons are global, informal events focused on building a community of artists, developers, and creators of all kinds around Creative Commons licenses, standards, and technology. The first event took place in San Francisco in 2006 with the idea to replicate in other locations internationally. Since then salons have sprung up in cities [[All Salons|around the world]]. Whether you're familiar with Creative Commons or are brand new to the concepts behind it, we encourage you to check out a salon near you.

The format for each event varies based on the location, but the overall concept is simple. CC Salons are open forums for people who are interested in the issues surrounding Creative Commons and global participatory culture. If you're interested in attending - check out the [[#Upcoming_Salons|upcoming salons]]. If your city doesn't have one - feel free to [[#Resources_for_starting_your_own_CC_Salon|start your own]].

'''CC Version 4.0'''
{{Infobox|

The CC 4.0 draft versions are out. During a 3 month requirements gathering period, we urge everyone with a proposal, concern or other input to please put it forth, as our goal is to make the first draft as comprehensive as possible. We will alert the community when the requirements period draws to a close, expected to be mid-February 2012. As in the past, we will publish at least two drafts of the licenses before finalizing, which we anticipate will occur late 2012.
