Unofficial last call on draft-snell-atompub-feed-license-03.txt




Over the past couple of weeks I've been working on a number of proposed Atom extensions that I am moving forward with as standards-track RFC's through individual submission.


I believe that the License extension -- http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-snell-atompub-feed-license-03.txt -- is complete and ready for an unofficial last call. Before I submit this to Scott Hollenbeck asking for it to become a standards-track RFC, I would like to invite the members of the WG to comment | praise | complain | improve | all-of-the-above. In >= 2 weeks I'll make any appropriate changes and submit the draft to Scott.

Summary: introduces a Link relation for associating copyright licenses (e.g. creative commons) with feeds and entries
Example:
<feed>
...
<link rel="license" type="text/html" href="http://creativecommons.org/..."; />
<entry>
...
<link rel="license" type="text/html" href="http://creativecommons.org/..."; />
<link rel="license" type="text/html" href="http://example.com/..."; />
</entry>
</feed>
Feed is licensed under a creative commons license
Entry is dual licensed (creative commons and some other type)
