Development

Known Issues

  • The first time a license is selected, the add-in reads the RDF database of licenses from the disk resulting in a noticeable pause.
  • Stale release.
  • Issues should be added to http://code.creativecommons.org/issues

Future Features

  • Make a release (last Nov 2007) incorporating Flickr Image Re-Use for OpenOffice.org.
  • Internationalization
  • Display license information when opening CC licensed documents [This was part of Cassio's original codebase; disabled for the initial release until it's adapted to the new package layout; shouldn't be difficult -- Nathan]]
  • Educational component (wizard) assists people in selecting appropriate license types for their desires
  • Support for Draw
  • Support for ODF 1.2 metadata (not yet supported by OOo)
  • Debian and Fedora packaging?
