Copyright on Tutorials and Examples
Feb 4th, 2010, 2:30pm
 
Hello,

I've seen the copyright stating that the Reference is Creative commons, but I was wondering about the tutorials and examples. Some of them are adapted from books, but I was wondering if their publication copyright still applied.

I wanted to write some documentation for openFrameworks and I thought it'd be a good start to follow the processing docs, but replace the processing for C++. I think that'd reduce the limitations to moving from one platform to another.

i dont know about the copyrights but i believe porting simple processing examples to openframeworks. makes it much easier for people who are familiar with processing to try out of...
i definitely like the idea.

i am sure as long as you offer the tutorials under the same CC licence it should be fine. but maybe somebody can aswer that question.

I suggest to contact fry and REAS, they should own most of the code (except when they credit somebody else) and at least can answer questions about these rights.
