GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 170996
display CC license information
Last modified: 2007-01-07 05:43:29 UTC
We should have a "License" tab if CC license information is present in the page. This is somewhat complicated by the fact that the license information is stored in an XML snipplet inside a <!-- --> comment, e.g. <!-- <rdf:RDF xmlns="http://web.resource.org/cc/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"> <Work rdf:about=""> <dc:type rdf:resource="http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/Text" /> <license rdf:resource="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/" /> </Work> <License rdf:about="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/"> <permits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Reproduction" /> <permits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Distribution" /> <requires rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Notice" /> <requires rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/Attribution" /> <prohibits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/CommercialUse" /> <permits rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/DerivativeWorks" /> <requires rdf:resource="http://web.resource.org/cc/ShareAlike" /> </License> </rdf:RDF> -->

There are more ways to embed CC license info in HTML: http://creativecommons.org/technology/metadata/extend
I've written this as a new extension. I created a new bug enhancement for it: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348050 It is announced in www.creativecommons.org : http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Browser_Plugin http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Epiphany_CC_Extension More info on my blog: http://textoplano.livejournal.com/1061.html http://textoplano.livejournal.com/1679.html
Closing as OBSOLETE since bug #348050 is enough for this (but not the same).
