Mike made a nice nod towards Inkscape’s support for Creative Commons licensing on the CC blog:
Last fall we mentioned a great post by Wikipedia leader (and now CC board member) Jimmy Wales on why free knowledge requires free software and free file formats.
Now Wikipedian Erik Möller weighs in with a practical post on Wikimedia’s open source toolset, which may be seen as a paean to open source media creation software generally (Wikipedia leading the way).
Erik specifically calls out Inkscape, a drawing application with contributions from now CC employee Jon Phillips (his open source contributions were crucial to getting a job here).
I’d like to add that I checked in changes to Inkscape for the recently released 3.0 licenses as well. I’d like underscore as well what Mike is saying about free and open source applications supporting Creative Commons licensing.
With my new role at CC as community+business developer, if you have added CC licensing and standards to your project and/or are wanting to, please do contact me for some big community shout-outs, blogging and general community plugging credit that I will do to support your efforts both here and on Creative Commons infrastructure. Let’s hook it up!
Ideally, I’d like to get CC licensing embedded into the freedesktop as the ultimate innovator and use-case for how to do things right. Never forget your roots is what my Mom said
