== Overview ==<br />
<br />
The United States of America’s President Barack Obama was sworn in on the 20th of January 2009 after being elected on the 4th of November 2008 to be the 44th leader of the American people. During the period between election and inauguration, the President elect’s transitional website (www.change.gov) was licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Licence.<ref name=”test”> [http://change.gov/about/copyright_policy The Office of the President Elect, Copyright Notice] (2008) at 19 March 2009.</ref> This meant that all content posted by the President elect, his team and any contributors was subject to this licence. During his inauguration, at 12:01pm on the 20th of January 2009, President Barack Obama launched the whitehouse.gov website, the official website of the Obama-Biden Administration also incorporating the same Creative Commons licence (see below).<ref name="test">Benenson, F [http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/12267 Whitehouse.gov’s 3rd Party Content Under CC-BY] (2009) Creative Commons, at 20 March 2009. </ref> <br />
<br />
Visitors to whitehouse.gov can choose to view information from a variety of categories, these being:<br />
* “The Briefing Room” which includes the White House Blog, weekly addresses, slideshows, speeches and official statements from the Obama-Biden Administration;<br />
* “The Agenda” which lists the “Obama-Biden Administration’s positions on everything from healthcare and the economy to alternative energy and foreign policy”; <br />
* “The Administration”, which as the name suggests, provides information about the various key figures in the current Administration;<br />
* “About the White House” which provides a historical overview of the US Government; and <br />
* “Our Government” which discusses democracy in the form of the various branches of government.<br />
<br />
Of the above, perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of the site is the White House blog. The White House blog discusses various events from spring gardening with the First Lady to live blogs of the Vice President’s meeting of the Middle Class Task Force for green jobs. The White House blog is the US Government’s tool to keeping the American people in-step with the most recent developments in politics, and is pitched on the site as offering exactly that - the “Latest News & Updates”. <br />
<br />
After visiting the site, it is easy to observe that the US Government’s goal in maintaining whitehouse.gov is to appear connected with its people. This is apparent from the weekly addresses, slideshows and constant blogging, which aim to create a sense of unity and inclusion for the American community. In teaming with this theme, the Office of Public Liaisons which can be accessed from the website’s Administration tab, offers an opportunity for the American people to give the Obama-Biden Administration feedback and suggestions on running the country. The idea behind this is obvious – “to take the Administration out of Washington and into communities across America, stimulating honest dialogue and ensuring that America's citizens and their elected officials have a government that works effectively for them and with them.” This initiative works in accordance with the idea of using the Creative Commons licence, and building a democracy based on true public participation, and will be discussed in detail below. <br />
<br />
== Statistics ==<br />
<br />
In March 2009, average weekly traffic rankings for whitehouse.gov were 3,080 people which had increased by an average of 2,729 people per week, for three months. From these users, 72.5% came from the United States of America. <br />
<br />
== Licence Usage ==<br />
<br />
Pursuant to the United States of America Code, Title 17, s 105, “copyright protection…is not available for any work of the United States Government, but the United States Government is not precluded from receiving and holding copyrights transferred to it by assignment, bequest, or otherwise.” As a result, the information posted by any of the Obama-Biden Administration on the whitehouse.gov site is not capable of being protected by copyright law. <br />
<br />
However, this rule does not apply to third party content posted to on whitehouse.gov. Therefore, to align with the open principles of the website, people posting material to the site are required to license that material under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licence. The White House copyright policy states that as a result “visitors to this website agree to grant a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license to the rest of the world for their submissions to whitehouse.gov.”<ref name=”test”> [http://www.whitehouse.gov/copyright/ The White House, Copyright Notice] (2009) at 20 March 2009. </ref> This licence enables visitors to the site to copy, distribute, display or perform any of the text or images contained in the site, as well as to make derivative works of these. The only condition to such use is that visitors must attribute the work remixed, copied, distributed, displayed or performed to the author but not in such a way as to imply that the author has endorsed the derivative work. <br />
<br />
This licence is the widest Creative Commons licence available that doesn’t give away all rights of the author. There are no restrictions with respect to using any material in a commercial manner, neither are there any restrictions about share-alike conditions. The use of this licence reflects the prohibition that copyright protection (of any kind) is not afforded to the United States Government or its products. In the event that a more onerous Creative Commons licence was imposed on Third Party content, this may be argued as being out of line with this principle. <br />
<br />
== Motivations ==<br />
<br />
Creative Commons licensing enables the Obama-Biden Administration to work collaboratively with the American people, and demonstrates a genuine focus on democratic participation in the running of the country. The ability to take information from the site with only an obligation to attribute it to the author means that visitors to the site can be fully informed and in turn can fully inform others. Additionally, this process means that the circulation of inaccurate material is kept to a minimum because of the openness of the collaboration process. <br />
<br />
Furthermore, after receiving a great response from using a Creative Commons licence on his change.gov site (even though the content contained was copyrightable at the time given that it was not US governmental material yet), President Obama’s choice to continue with the Creative Commons license for whitehouse.gov was strategically logical. Choosing to use the Creative Commons licence clearly influenced and reached out to those sectors of the community who were in tune with current creative technological advancements, and whose attention may not have been attracted otherwise. Creative Commons blogger, Fred Benenson encouraged the use of Creative Commons by President Obama, as did others with comments like “Thank you again, Mr President,” and “How awesome” posted on blogs all over the internet. The clearly favourable responses from the American people to the use of a Creative Commons licence on whitehouse.gov, indicates that the President’s team was successful in utilizing the licence to create a truly democratic process in a creative online environment. The political results of this move are a clear motivation for the use of the Creative Commons licence.<br />
<br />
Finally, the convenience of the archiving process of the website has been made abundantly simpler given the use of the Creative Commons Licence. As one blogger put it, using a CC licence for 3rd party material on whitehouse.gov “would make the archiving of the website a much easier proposition.” Obviously the ability to forego any copyright processes and other such records would be a motivation for the maintainers of whitehouse.gov given that the site will encourage high traffic and be in use for the entire term of President Obama.<br />
<br />
It can be gathered from comments by the administration on the site, and in particular those on the site of the Office of Public Liaison, that the current US Government is legitimately interested in generating public interest around policy issues in order to build a greater democracy.<br />

== Overview ==<br />
<br />
The United States of America’s President Barack Obama was sworn in on the 20th of January 2009 after being elected on the 4th of November 2008 to be the 44th leader of the American people. During the period between election and inauguration, the President elect’s transitional website (www.change.gov) was licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Licence.<ref name=”test”> [http://change.gov/about/copyright_policy The Office of the President Elect, Copyright Notice] (2008) at 19 March 2009.</ref> This meant that all content posted by the President elect, his team and any contributors was subject to this licence. During his inauguration, at 12:01pm on the 20th of January 2009, President Barack Obama launched the whitehouse.gov website, the official website of the Obama-Biden Administration also incorporating the same Creative Commons licence (see below).<ref name="test">Benenson, F [http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/12267 Whitehouse.gov’s 3rd Party Content Under CC-BY] (2009) Creative Commons, at 20 March 2009. </ref> <br />
<br />
Visitors to whitehouse.gov can choose to view information from a variety of categories, these being:<br />
* “The Briefing Room” which includes the White House Blog, weekly addresses, slideshows, speeches and official statements from the Obama-Biden Administration;<br />
* “The Agenda” which lists the “Obama-Biden Administration’s positions on everything from healthcare and the economy to alternative energy and foreign policy”; <br />
* “The Administration”, which as the name suggests, provides information about the various key figures in the current Administration;<br />
* “About the White House” which provides a historical overview of the US Government; and <br />
* “Our Government” which discusses democracy in the form of the various branches of government.<br />
<br />
Of the above, perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of the site is the White House blog. The White House blog discusses various events from spring gardening with the First Lady to live blogs of the Vice President’s meeting of the Middle Class Task Force for green jobs. The White House blog is the US Government’s tool to keeping the American people in-step with the most recent developments in politics, and is pitched on the site as offering exactly that - the “Latest News & Updates”. <br />
<br />
After visiting the site, it is easy to observe that the US Government’s goal in maintaining whitehouse.gov is to appear connected with its people. This is apparent from the weekly addresses, slideshows and constant blogging, which aim to create a sense of unity and inclusion for the American community. In teaming with this theme, the Office of Public Liaisons which can be accessed from the website’s Administration tab, offers an opportunity for the American people to give the Obama-Biden Administration feedback and suggestions on running the country. The idea behind this is obvious – “to take the Administration out of Washington and into communities across America, stimulating honest dialogue and ensuring that America's citizens and their elected officials have a government that works effectively for them and with them.” This initiative works in accordance with the idea of using the Creative Commons licence, and building a democracy based on true public participation, and will be discussed in detail below. <br />
<br />
== Statistics ==<br />
<br />
In March 2009, average weekly traffic rankings for whitehouse.gov were 3,080 people which had increased by an average of 2,729 people per week, for three months. From these users, 72.5% came from the United States of America. <br />
<br />
== Licence Usage ==<br />
<br />
Pursuant to the United States of America Code, Title 17, s 105, “copyright protection…is not available for any work of the United States Government, but the United States Government is not precluded from receiving and holding copyrights transferred to it by assignment, bequest, or otherwise.” As a result, the information posted by any of the Obama-Biden Administration on the whitehouse.gov site is not capable of being protected by copyright law. <br />
<br />
However, this rule does not apply to third party content posted to on whitehouse.gov. Therefore, to align with the open principles of the website, people posting material to the site are required to license that material under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licence. The White House copyright policy states that as a result “visitors to this website agree to grant a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license to the rest of the world for their submissions to whitehouse.gov.”<ref name=”test”> [http://www.whitehouse.gov/copyright/ The White House, Copyright Notice] (2009) at 20 March 2009. </ref> This licence enables visitors to the site to copy, distribute, display or perform any of the text or images contained in the site, as well as to make derivative works of these. The only condition to such use is that visitors must attribute the work remixed, copied, distributed, displayed or performed to the author but not in such a way as to imply that the author has endorsed the derivative work. <br />
<br />
This licence is the widest Creative Commons licence available that doesn’t give away all rights of the author. There are no restrictions with respect to using any material in a commercial manner, neither are there any restrictions about share-alike conditions. The use of this licence reflects the prohibition that copyright protection (of any kind) is not afforded to the United States Government or its products. In the event that a more onerous Creative Commons licence was imposed on Third Party content, this may be argued as being out of line with this principle. <br />
<br />
== Motivations ==<br />
<br />
Creative Commons licensing enables the Obama-Biden Administration to work collaboratively with the American people, and demonstrates a genuine focus on democratic participation in the running of the country. The ability to take information from the site with only an obligation to attribute it to the author means that visitors to the site can be fully informed and in turn can fully inform others. Additionally, this process means that the circulation of inaccurate material is kept to a minimum because of the openness of the collaboration process. <br />
<br />
Furthermore, after receiving a great response from using a Creative Commons licence on his change.gov site (even though the content contained was copyrightable at the time given that it was not US governmental material yet), President Obama’s choice to continue with the Creative Commons license for whitehouse.gov was strategically logical. Choosing to use the Creative Commons licence clearly influenced and reached out to those sectors of the community who were in tune with current creative technological advancements, and whose attention may not have been attracted otherwise. Creative Commons blogger, Fred Benenson encouraged the use of Creative Commons by President Obama, as did others with comments like “Thank you again, Mr President,” and “How awesome” posted on blogs all over the internet. The clearly favourable responses from the American people to the use of a Creative Commons licence on whitehouse.gov, indicates that the President’s team was successful in utilizing the licence to create a truly democratic process in a creative online environment. The political results of this move are a clear motivation for the use of the Creative Commons licence.<br />
<br />
Finally, the convenience of the archiving process of the website has been made abundantly simpler given the use of the Creative Commons Licence. As one blogger put it, using a CC licence for 3rd party material on whitehouse.gov “would make the archiving of the website a much easier proposition.” Obviously the ability to forego any copyright processes and other such records would be a motivation for the maintainers of whitehouse.gov given that the site will encourage high traffic and be in use for the entire term of President Obama.<br />
<br />
It can be gathered from comments by the administration on the site, and in particular those on the site of the Office of Public Liaison, that the current US Government is legitimately interested in generating public interest around policy issues in order to build a greater democracy.<br />

== Overview ==<br />
<br />
Ton Roosendaal is the lead developer of the Open Source 3D animation program [http://www.blender.org/ Blender]. Blender is a highly popular platform to produce 3D renderings and is used by The History Channel and also for storyboarding the Spider-man 2 movie. Along with being the lead developer Ton is also the Chairman of the [http://www.blender.org/blenderorg/blender-foundation/ Blender Foundation], the non-profit that founds development and animation projects in the [http://www.blender.org/community/user-community/ Blender Community]. The Foundation is funded by donations and the sales of 3D rendering training materials from its online store. These founds allow the foundation to support Ton Roosendaal and a small staff to work on Blender development full-time, production of short films which both spur development and showcase the capabilities of Blender, and put on the Blender Conference.<br />
<br />
Ton was the original lead developer of Blender when he founded the animation studio NeoGeo in 1988. After 7 years of development it was decided that to continue improving the product it was required to perform a complete rewrite of the software. Thus, in 1995, the development for what is now known as Blender began. Ton started a spin-off of NeoGeo in 1998 called Not a Number (NaN) which had its goal to develop and distribute a powerful 3D tool for free. The business model hinged on providing commercial products and services for Blender. However, after disappointing sales results of the Blender Publisher product in 2001 the then current investors decided to shutdown the company and thus development of Blender.<br />
<br />
The Blender community, however, did not want to see such a powerful tool disappear games. [http://juegosdecocina-9.org juegos de cocina] Ton started the Blender Foundation which negotiated with the investors to allow the releasing of the Blender source code under the GNU General Public License if they were paid a sum of 100,000 EUR. The foundation raised that amount from the support of the community and the Free Blender campaign. On Sunday October 13, 2002 the Blender source code was released to the public.<br />
<br />
The Blender Foundation has since then supported the development of the [http://juegos-de-bebes.org juegos de bebes] software and also the production of creative projects to showcase both the Blender software and the skilled creators in the community. In 2005 the Foundation started Project Orange to produce the Open Movie “Elephants Dream” which was greeted to wide praise. The entire project of “Elephants Dream” was released under a Creative Commons Attribution license on March 24, 2006. This included all 7 gigabytes of data which was used to create the final movie. Following the success of Project Orange the Blender Foundation began Project Peach in October of 2007 to create a “funny and furry” movie. Big Buck Bunny was released on April 10, 2008 to, again, wide acclaim. An Open Game based on the Big Buck Bunny movie was started as Project Apricot in February of 2008.<br />

== Motivations ==<br />
<br />
When asked about the relationship between the Open Source [http://juegosdevestir-9.org juegos de vestir] community of Blender development and the creators using it for the such projects as Project Orange and Project Peach Ton writes, “The relation is especially important when projects are involved for documentation or support, or Open Movie projects like we do for improving Blender. The fact people can share content to learn from or to build on, is a typical [http://juegosdemotos-9.org juegos de motos] community-based 'shared self-interest' thing.”<br />
<br />
However, the use of the Creative Commons license was not clear decision back in 2005 when Project Orange was began. Ton and others in the community realized how important of a license it will become in the future for creative works. [http://juegosdefutbol-9.org juegos de futbol] However, reservations still surfaced:<br />
“Just the week before the release we were a bit nervous going for CC-by only... for artists it's not easy to let your baby go and have other people mess with it, completely unlimited! In the end, looking back, it's has proven to be only cool. Hardly no abuse happened, and the freedom only inspired very interesting use.”<br />
<br />
All material for Project Orange and Project Peach were released under the Creative [http://juegosdecoches-9.org juegos de coches] Commons Attribution license and this decision was made with the Golden Rule in mind as Ton states, “Since we got sponsored by our community, we should give them back the project results in a way we would have liked to receive it ourselves... meaning, freedom to re-use, also for commercial work.”<br />
<br />
After experiencing first had what it is like to develop and release a project under a permissive Creative Commons license Ton has one piece of advice for those choosing a license for their work: “Just go for it, don't be afraid of sharing. The incidental (and inevitable) abuses will never outweigh the benefits.”<br />

<hr />
<div>The internet and technology have changed how people access images, and photographers are responding by employing new methods to reach audiences. These methods include personal websites, social media tools, photo-sharing platforms and communities, and tools such as Creative Commons licenses that enable easy sharing and reuse of creative works.<br />
<br />
CC licenses are a flexible way to share images while building on the strong foundation of traditional copyright law. Simply put, Creative Commons licenses allow the shift from “all rights reserved” to “some rights reserved,” enabling you to share your images under terms of your own choosing. This gives you control over distribution, and the non-exclusivity of the licenses means you can retain all commercial rights if desired. <br />
<br />
[[#Photographers_using_CC_licenses|Photographers using CC licenses]] gain new audiences for their work on photo-sharing platforms like [http://www.flickr.com/creativecommons Flickr] and communities like [http://www.wikipedia.org/ Wikipedia]. Mohamed Nanabhay, Head of Online, Al Jazeera English, [http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/18213 writes]:<br />
:“When launching our [CC] repository, we had thought that it would be a key resource for anyone producing content on the war and that it would primarily be used by other news organisations and documentary filmmakers. What we saw was both surprising and delightful. Soon after posting our first video, Wikipedia editors had extracted images to enhance the encyclopedia entries on the War on Gaza. Soon thereafter educators, filmmakers, video game developers, aid agencies and music video producers all used and built upon our footage.”<br />

Wikipedia is a heavily-trafficked website with over 400 million unique visitors a month. Flickr contains over 200 million CC-licensed photos, establishing it as the Web’s single largest source of CC-licensed content.<br />

CC licenses have been upheld in several [[Case_Law|court cases]] around the world. A few of these cases pertain specifically to CC-licensed images.<br />
<br />
*In [[Curry_v._Audax |Curry v. Audax]], Adam Curry, a former MTV VJ and one of the pioneers of podcasting, published photos onto his Flickr account under a BY-NC-SA license. A Dutch tabloid reprinted four of the photos in a story about the Curry family's public persona verses real private life. Curry sued the tabloid for violating the portrait rights of his family and for copyright violation over the improper user of his Flickr photos. The Dutch court held that, in the future, the tabloid could not use any of the photos from Flickr and [http://www.iphone4charger.com iphone 4 battery case] in the future unless under the terms of the photos' CC license or with permission from Curry. <br />

== Overview ==<br />
<br />
[http://wikieducator.org/Otago_Polytechnic Otago Polytechnic] is a publicly-subsidised vocational education and training organisation located in Dunedin on the South Island of New Zealand. It provides a range of vocational courses, offering certificates, diplomas, degrees and postgraduate studies in Travel and Tourism, through Automotive Engineering to Midwifery.<br />
<br />
Taking an open view of teaching, learning and research, Otago Polytechnic reconsidered their stance on access to educational resources, then governed by traditional views of ownership and Intellectual Property. Key stakeholders were consulted in the review, which occurred over the past two years, providing feedback that the institution needed to be more open to support creative thinking and the application of theory to practice. This culminated in the announcement in March 2008 that Otago Polytechnic was releasing their training materials under open access terms on Wikieducator.<br />
<br />
== License Usage ==<br />
<br />
As stated in its current [http://wikieducator.org/Otago_Polytechnic/Intellectual_property Intellectual Property Policy]:<br />
:‘Otago Polytechnic wishes to foster research and development that advances knowledge and scholarship; and to support projects where that leads to marketable products or services. <br />
:The Polytechnic: <br />
:*has a preference for the open sharing of information, knowledge and resources <br />
:*recognises that intellectual property (IP) is owned by the creator, unless there are :specific agreements to the ownership of IP by others, and <br />

<br />
== Motivations ==<br />
<br />
Encouraging open content licenses at Otago Polytechnic by way of its [http://wikieducator.org/Otago_Polytechnic/Intellectual_property Intellectual Property Policy] has assured employees and contractors that they are free to use and develop open content, and that they are free to participate in Open Educational Resource development initiatives. Many staff have now developed independent skills in publishing and managing their own content, as well as locating and reusing third-party open content, and collaborating in content development. The proliferation of open content and associated practices has helped to promote the Polytech as well as the expertise and services of the individuals in its employ. A more independent and participatory culture within the organisation is beginning to develop.<br />
<br />
Free [http://www.iphone4charger.com iphone 4 battery case] and Open Source Software first inspired thinking about free and open source educational content. The success of Wikimedia Foundation projects proved the idea viable. Support from many individuals and initiatives such as Wikieducator has made it possible.<br />
<br />
Otago Polytechnic decided to adopt the Creative Commons Attribution licence so as to ensure a maximum amount of freedom and flexibility to itself and to people and organisations sampling its content. Restrictions like ShareAlike and Noncommercial were not an option as they would have compromised or complicated this position.<br />

== Overview ==<br />
The [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/ Powerhouse Museum, Sydney (PHM)] is one of Australia’s premier cultural institutions, housing collections which express the nation’s innovation and creativity in science, technology, and the arts. With 22 permanent exhibitions, as well as 250 interactive displays, over 388,000 historically-significant objects are curated by museum staff across an area of 20,000 square metres, the equivalent of three international competition soccer fields. PHM was opened to the public on 10 March 1988, with the [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/about/aboutMuseum.asp vision] that ‘celebrates human creativity and innovation in ways that engage, inform and inspire diverse audiences.’<br />
<br />
PHM’s history and exhibitions are captured in the Museum’s [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/imageservices/ ‘Photo of the Day’], a blog which features photographs pertaining to its vast collection. [http://www.findbusinesstelephonesystems.co.uk business telephone systems] Shot by PHM’s professional photographers for a variety of purposes – documenting PHM’s public events, programs and exhibitions, to behind-the-scenes operations – the images form a rich archive of life in New South Wales and beyond, as well as detailing aspects and activities of the PHM hitherto unseen. A selection of these photographs is hosted on [http://www.flickr.com/photos/16870059@N04/ Flickr].<br />
<br />
On 7 April 2008, PHM [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/imageservices/?m=20080408 announced] its collaboration with Flickr to create [http://www.flickr.com/commons/ ‘The Commons’], becoming the first museum in the world to release publicly-held historical photographs for access on the photo-sharing platform. PHM selected its [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/tyrrell/ Tyrrell Photographic Collection] for display, an extensive series of glass plate negatives taken by photographers Charles Kerry (1857-1928) and Henry King (1855-1923), showing Sydney life in the late 19th and early 20th century. The initial [http://www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/ Flickr collection] consists of 200 black and white Tyrrell images, which are now available for public tagging and comment. PHM’s curators continue to upload [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/dmsblog/index.php/2008/04/16/50-new-images-on-the-commons-on-flickr/ 50 new images] every week from the collection’s 7903 images, and, where possible, add geotags to create an [http://www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2376052141/map/?view=users interactive map] documenting the position of the photographic content.<br />
<br />
New South Wales Minister for the Arts Frank Sartor said in response to the announcement:<br />
:‘The Powerhouse Museum initiative shows that the NSW Government is a leader in increasing public access to Australian cultural collections. These evocative images of historic Sydney and early Australian life will greatly appeal to people from around the world, as well as Australians.’<br />
<br />
[http://play.powerhousemuseum.com/ ‘Play at Powerhouse’] is PHM’s education program for children. It provides a resource designed for children aged up to 10 years, and involves parents and carers. ‘Play’ includes information about visiting the PHM with children, and offers activities and games around the topics of science and design to engage children at home. These can be downloaded and completed independently, but are clearly designed to enhance a visit to the Museum. The project is overseen by the Web Service Unit at the PHM, headed by Sebastian Chan.<br />
<br />
== Statistics ==<br />
PHM’s website received over 7.6 million unique hits in the 2006-7 financial year. This was in addition to seeing in excess of 621,000 visitors on site, and 426,000 through the travelling exhibitions. The Museum hosts over 385,000 objects in the fields of science, technology, industry, history, decorative arts, music, transport and space exploration. Icons and artefacts are displayed over 11 kilometres of gallery space as well as online. <br />
<br />
According to Sebastian Chan’s blog post on [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/dmsblog/index.php/2008/04/09/24-hours-later-powerhouse-on-the-commons-on-flickr/ fresh + new(er)], the reaction to PHM’s Flickr Commons initiative has been remarkable. In the day following PHM’s public announcement, the Tyrrell collection received ‘plenty of views (4777), and stacks of tags (175) - in such a short time.’ In the [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/dmsblog/index.php/2008/04/16/50-new-images-on-the-commons-on-flickr/ first week] of the Tyrrell collection being hosted on Flickr, PHM received nearly 20,000 views and ‘an enormous amount of tagging and "favouriting" activity combined with many congratulatory messages and support for the Museum’s release of these images into the Commons.’ <br />
== License Usage ==<br />
The rights and permissions pertaining to PHM’s content are clarified [http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/imageservices/?page_id=157 here], which specifies that materials housed at the Museum fall into three categories: full copyright, ‘no known copyright,’ and ‘Creative Commons Attribution-Non-Commercial-NoDerivatives.’<br />
<br />
In relation to the application of the Creative Commons BY-NC-ND licence, the [http://www.lblognetwork.com site] explains:<br />
:‘This licence is used on some parts of our website. Examples are our own photography in the Photo of the Day blog and also for children’s activities on our Play at Powerhouse website. This license means that you can republish this material for any non-commercial purpose as long as you give attribution back to the Powerhouse Museum as the creator and that you do not modify the work in any way. A more detailed explanation of the license is available from Creative Commons.’<br />
<br />
In April 2007, Play’s downloadable materials were licensed using the [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 Licence]. According to web master Sebastian Chan, the intention in licensing under Creative Commons was to allow school children and teachers to use these resources in a multitude of ways whilst balancing PHM’s internal needs. <br />
<br />
In late November 2007, selected [http://www.anggarakasa.com images] from ‘Photo of the Day’ were similarly licensed. The Museum’s photographers were involved to a large part in the discussions about licensing for this project, with all agreeing to the use of CC. Having Creative Commons licensing on certain images was felt potentially to encourage interest and sales of the All Rights Reserved photos, and to enable the collection to be seen and used to a greater degree.<br />
<br />
In relation to images displayed on Flickr Commons, the ‘no known copyright’ category indicates that the Museum is unaware of any current Copyright restrictions on this work. ‘This can be because the term of Copyright for this work may have expired or that Copyright does not apply to this type of work.’<br />
<br />
== Motivations ==<br />
Creative Commons Australia has been excited to follow the progress of PHM’s initiatives, and has spoken to the respective members of PHM’s development and curatorial teams over this period. Sebastian Chan, head of PHM’s Web Service Unit, expressed the following opinion about Creative Commons licensing on 17 March 2008:<br />
:‘Creative Commons provided the perfect licensing for the craft activities on our children’s website – http://play.powerhousemuseum.com. We wanted to ensure that children, parents and teachers could download, duplicate and reuse all the craft activities on the site whilst protecting the Museum’s authorship. Creative Commons also provides a means for us to encourage the use of these in schools without teachers needing to be fearful of paying CAL fees for their use.’<br />
<br />
Paula Bray, Manager of the Powerhouse’s Image Services, agreed with this sentiment:<br />
:‘It is great to be able to use the Creative Commons licensing tool so our audience can clearly see what the conditions of use are for Powerhouse Museum Photo of the Day images. This informative licensing model will hopefully educate people on the often complicated conditions surrounding copyright. We are using this licensing tool for our blog "Photo of the Day" to support non-commercial use of our images.’<br />
<br />
In addition, Paula directed us towards Geoff Friend, PHM’s Photography Manager, who supports the move towards Creative Commons licences:<br />
:‘Creative Commons offers a flexible addition to the standard copyright symbol we’ve been using for many years and the great thing is it allows photographers and other creators to choose different licensing options. It’s great to see our images displayed, acknowledged, accessed and appreciated by so many passionate enthusiasts that we can engage with on our favourite subject, and hopefully so others can learn from our images.’ <br />

[http://jogos-de-meninas.org jogos de meninas] The data set is called Tres Cantos Antimalarial (TCAMS), and is available from the ChEMBL-NTD database, "a repository for Open Access primary screening and medicinal chemistry data directed at [http://jogos-demoto.org jogos de moto] neglected diseases - endemic tropical diseases of the developing regions of the Africa, Asia, and the Americas."<br />

== Motivations ==<br />
From GSK's [http://www.gsk.com/responsibility/downloads/GSK-CR-2009-full.pdf 2009 report]:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>"By making this information publicly available, GSK hopes that many other scientists will review this information and analyse the data faster than we could on our own. Hopefully, this will lead to additional research that could help drive the discovery of new medicines. We would also encourage other groups, including academics and pharmaceutical companies, [http://jogos-de-tiro.org jogos de tiro] to make their own compounds and related information publicly available.<br />
<br />
<br/><br/>This is essentially an example of ‘open source’ being applied to drug discovery. We know that data increases in value when connected with other data and that the more eyes looking at a [http://jogos-de-princesas.org jogos de princesas] problem, the more potential solutions may arise."</blockquote><br />
<br />
Research and development (R&D) for diseases prevalent in the developing world are costly and time-consuming and carry less return on investment than R&D for diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, which have a market in the developed world. Since malaria is a disease that primarily [http://jogos-decozinhar.org jogos de cozinhar] affects the developing world, GSK has released malarial data in order to speed the process of R&D, while providing resources that nonprofits and academic institutions don't necessarily have wide access to, such as advanced technologies, facilities for medicinal drug discovery, and manufacturing and distribution expertise.

<blockquote>"By making this information publicly available, GSK hopes that many other scientists will review this information and analyse the data faster than we could on our own. Hopefully, this will lead to additional research that could help drive the discovery of new medicines. We would also encourage other groups, including academics and pharmaceutical companies, to make their own compounds and related information publicly available.<br />
<br />
<br/><br/>This is essentially an example of ‘open source’ being applied to drug discovery. We know that data increases in value when connected with other data and that the more eyes looking at a problem, the more potential solutions may arise."</blockquote><br />
<br />
Research and development (R&D) for diseases prevalent in the developing world are costly and time-consuming and carry less return on investment than R&D for diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, which have a market in the developed world. Since malaria is a disease that primarily affects the developing world, GSK has released malarial data in order to speed the process of R&D, while providing resources that nonprofits and academic institutions don't necessarily have wide access to, such as advanced technologies, facilities for medicinal drug discovery, and manufacturing and distribution expertise.
