Public discussion taking place on

Status

Tool Beta

  • warning needed, or some way to let people know what rights they need to make this dedication.

Needed clarifications

Not active till published with disclaimer

Concerns

Is this a copyright waiver = No Rights Reserved or something broader that waives other rights like:

  • Patents
  • Trademarks
  • Unfair competition
  • Privacy rights
  • Publicity rights
  • Commercial rights
  • Database Rights

signature notes

  • Do we need signatures?
  • Can a serious of emails qualify as a signature?

jurisdiction specific

  • Chile = copyright act - art. 86 ...all the patrimonial rights as unrenunciable by authors
  • Spain = similar issues in Spain as Chile: PD = waived rights and some rights can not be waived.
  • UK may require a signature for waiving moral right (Cite needed)

>> 87 (2)" Any of those rights may be waived by instrument in writing signed by the person giving up the right."

>> 87(4) of course gives us some wiggle room but I'm not sure how well it would work out with regards to moral rights.

  • German Moral rights unalienable (Cite needed)
  • other?

Other comments
