Projects
Creative Commons actively develops the following software projects:
- ccPublisher
- ccLookup
- ccHost (ccMixter source code)
- Command Line Tools
- CcNutch
Code for our projects is hosted at Sourceforge.net or Berlios.de; see the Source Repository Policy for information on contributing code or starting a new project.
Supporting Projects
We also maintain several library projects which are reused in some of our applications:
- License Wrappers language-specific wrappers for representing and manipulating license information
- Creative Commons Web Services
- Web Services Client Implementations
- pyArchive
- Ajax License Chooser
Exploratory Projects
The projects below are currently being discussed or explored:
- Content Aggregation
- libcclicense - an abstract library for implementing license support (C-library)
- Dream CC Tool - A discussion of the "ideal" CC tool; possibly the successor to ccPublisher?
- Development Ideas - A collection of nascent ideas for CC-enabled tools. As these become more fleshed out, they'll be moved to their own pages.
