Tech Roadmap
Issues for PD Mark are tagged with the pdmark
keyword.
PDM Chooser
The PDM will have a "chooser" for generating mark metadata. This will live at http://creativecommons.org/choose/pdmark [tentative]. This will be a two-page chooser, similar to the main license chooser. This will require changes to cc.license (Issue 638) as well as cc.engine (Issue 639).
The first page will consist of:
- An introductory paragraph, to be supplied by legal
- The following fields:
- Work name
- Creator
- Curator (this label will probably change)
- Curator URL
- Norms URL
- Do you waive any incidental rights under CC0? (true/false)
The second page will be a "normal" results page.
Metadata (XHTML + RDFa)
Tracked by Issue 640.
- Basic:
<a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/"> <img src="http://i.creativecommons.org/l/mark/1.0/88x31.png" style="border-style: none;" alt="Public Domain Mark" /> </a>
This work is free of copyright restrictions.

Deeds
We'll be rolling out a visually distinct identity for public domain deeds (as opposed to license deeds).
PDM Deed
PDM will have a deed (Issue 642) that optionally shows metadata (Issue 643) from the referrer. See http://labs.creativecommons.org/demos/pd/ for mockups of with and without.
CC0 Deed
The CC0 deed will be updated at the same time with a refreshed visual look that and with support for norms and copy-and-paste citation (Issue 130)
Metadata Scraper
The metadata scraper will need to be updated to support extraction of information for PD Mark and CC0. This includes:
- work information
- attribution/citation statement
- norms statement
It may make sense to add another method to the scraper that knows how to extract/format for public domain deeds. (Issue 641)
Deed Javascript
The deed javascript has been dramatically simplified with the rollout of the new scraper. We'll need javascript that meshes with the Metadata Scraper call above for PDM/CC0 deeds (Issue 130, Issue 643).
