I’ve mentioned both my affection for free software and Free Software Magazine before. Well now I can link the two as I have had two articles published in the latest issue (15) of FSM.

The first is a beginners guide to understanding free software which does exactly what it says on the tin (I hope). The second is a review of GRAMPS which is a free software licenced genealogical application.

If you are interested in free software or just want to know what the fuss is about I recommend the first one. The second will be of interest if – like myself and many – you are interested in family trees and the like.

@davewalker yes he's coming from a perspective of how do CC licenced works get the artists paid but some of the discussion is relevant here 11 hours ago

@davewalker There's an interesting discussion on why artists should be paid here: http://t.co/qsp4xv0j 12 hours ago

@davewalker In my mind copyright infringement and attribution/payment of artists are slightly different (albeit related) issues. 12 hours ago

@davewalker The law is unclear because like many things it makes no allowance for the WWW 12 hours ago

@davewalker the issue here is whether you are placing a copy on your page or displaying the one on original site (deeplinking). Law unclear 12 hours ago

@davewalker In general tho the point that things-found-on-web-are-fair-game is a crock and ppl should be attributed/paid as appropriate 12 hours ago

@davewalker Think it depends if photo is of cartoon or contains cartoon and also intent of usage (difficult to prove) 12 hours ago

@davewalker It's an interesting topic. For example is sharing a photo of a cartoon copyright infringement or creating a new work? 12 hours ago
