In August 2002, Norman Walsh announced: >To support the new pubrules, and because I've been meaning to do this >for the stylesheets for a long time, I've published a new set of DTDs >and Stylesheets at > > http://www.w3.org/2002/xmlspec/ Hello, After confusion regarding the use of this document by other W3C WGs [a] in May, and a second request for clarity in June [b], I was hoping that the subsequent release, in August, would include the appropriate notice. I'm hope the third time request will be the charm! <smile/> [a] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Team/site-policy/2002AprJun/0473.html [b] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/spec-prod/2002AprJun/0054.html From: Joseph Reagle <reagle@w3.org> To: Norman.Walsh@East.Sun.COM, crism@lexica.net, ben@legendary.org, eve.maler@E ast.Sun.COM Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2002 11:32:39 -0400 Cc: spec-prod@w3.org Message-Id: <20020614153239.DDBF385EC0@aeon.w3.org> Subject: Copyright Status's of spec-prod documents Given a question about the creation of derivative works based on [1,2], elsewhere [3] I recommended the authors clarify the copyright owners (W3C or specific persons) and the specific licenses (W3C document or software license) under which they be distributed. I'm repeating this request in the spec-prod forum. The ambiguity created by these documents in the context of being hosted on the W3C site (which has specific terms and licenses) should be eliminated.

All Rights Reserved. W3C(r) liability, trademark, document use and software licensing rules apply. http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/" In either case, I recommend a further statement that it was obtained under a dated version of the W3C Software license: and "This document was made used in accordance with the W3C Software Policy http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/copyright-software-19980720"
