BY-SA and GPLv3 compatibility announcement

I know this is getting cross posted everywhere, but it's big news (for people who follow both code and content licensing) As of today, CC BY-SA 4.0 is now one-way compatible with the GPLv3. This is the result of extensive collaboration and analysis with the Free Software Foundation and the Creative Commons community.

Development release of Internet Archive module up

Posted by civicpixel on September 7, 2010 at 4:31pm

As part of the last phase of the Knight News Challenge grant I've been working to create a module to automate transfers to Archive.org of files available to Drupal. The development release is now ready, and we're continuing to test it here at Denver Open Media. My thanks go out to John Hauser at Access Humboldt, and the team at Archive.org who helped me navigate the S3-like interface and provided invaluable feedback in regards to handling metadata.

Content Sharing Status in the OMP

Posted by deproduction on April 21, 2010 at 6:56pm

The Open Media Foundation's last deliverable for the Open Media Project Knight Foundation grant is a shared content solution for the OMP partners. Our proposed solution differs from existing solutions in that we want to enable automated or user-driven content-sharing, as opposed to the admin-focused solutions that exist with PEGMedia or the ACM/Telvue solution... For example, we want a community member in San Fran, searching for "Cambodian Comedy" videos to see the matching files in SF, and also see a lower-tier of search results from other OMP partner sites.
