Personally, my journal posts are intentionally not released under any license whatsoever. That means, as far as I'm concerned, that people need to follow usual and customary implicit licensing rules and fair use rules which, given that I provide an RSS feed, would allow aggregation. (Similar to how posting something to Usenet grants an implicit license to distribute the post throughout Usenet given that it's how the medium works.) If they do something unusual with my blog entries, such as create derivative works, modify the entries, or obscure the authorship, without obtaining an implicit license and outside the realms of fair use, I reserve the right to sue them, and there are no statements anywhere in my blog that waive any of those rights. This is intentional on my part. Those things on my web site that are intended to be released under a free license are explicitly marked as such, but my personal blog is not something I feel comfortable doing that with in general. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
