− | Despite our best efforts, spelling errors and other errata are sometimes included in the published legal code for licenses. Creative Commons publishes [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sha1 SHA1] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function checksums] for legal code, which allows people who receive a copy of the license to easily verify this it has not been tampered with. Therefore Creative Commons does not amend legal code once published.
| + | '''NEW LOCATION:''' This page has moved to [https://creativecommons.org/legal-code-errata/ Legal Code Errata]. |
− | | |
− | Creative Commons is planning an errata service which will allow us to record and report the typographical errata for a license without modifying the document itself. This service is currently under development, and will launch Q2 2008. Until that time, this wiki page collects known errata for license legal code. If you discover a spelling error on a license, please record it here. The information on this page will be integrated in the errata service at launch time.

− | == Header color-coding not correct ==
| |
− | The headers of the legalcode are color-coded to indicate the relative openness of the licenses. A green header means more open, and this is only applied to the BY and BY-SA licenses. The BY-NC, BY-NC-ND, BY-NC-SA and BY-ND legalcode should have a yellow header.
