[p2p-research] Open Source and Co-ops events [TTLLP #1461]

[Michel Bauwens]

I adapted the text ...

I'm agnostic on the license, but am not sure it's possible to choose a
different license for each page.

here's some background on the issue of choosing a right license from our
wiki:

] Fair Use Notice

This site contains copyrighted material the use of which has not always been
specifically authorized by the copyright owner. We are making such material
available in our efforts to advance understanding of peer to peer dynamics.

If you wish to use copyrighted material from this site for purposes of your

 [edit<http://p2pfoundation.net/Important_notice_on_COPYRIGHT?title=Important_notice_on_COPYRIGHT&action=edit&section=2>
] Some practical recommendations

Please note there are two kinds of pages here.

1) The "impersonal ones", that are continuous upgrades of third party
material and citations, through a process called opportunistic updating,
which is in agreement with Fair Use <http://p2pfoundation.net/Fair_Use> or
'fair dealing' (Canada) principles.


In such pages, it is not recommended to copy the full article, only the
paragraph that is relevant to the topic at hand. These original quotes
should not be modified, and should always be sourced. If you add any
comments, then such a personal voice should be stated as such. It is
recommended to use the talk pages first in case of disagreement.


2) personal project pages, where individuals describe their own concepts and
projects. Also in this case, respect the individual voice of the author, but
these pages should be clearly stated as such.
