OA and derivative works, continued Last Thursday I wrote some blog comments on OA and derivative works which elicited disagreement from several friends and allies: Klaus Graf (disagreeing with my position), Peter Murray-Rust (agreeing with my support for CC-BY licenses but disagreeing with my position on derivative works), and Matt Cockerill (disagreeing with my position on derivative works --by email, not online). Much of the trouble, perhaps all of it, was my own fault. I should have said more to make my position clear, and here I take the chance to do so. We may still disagree when all is clarified, but I suspect that we will disagree less. I'll frame my response as a dialog with Matt Cockerill, who has allowed me to quote from his email:
Update. See Klaus Graf's response. |
