		It is possible that the first documented case of Open Content was with the Royal Society, where they aspired toward information sharing across the globe as a public enterprise.
		Like the debate between the titles "open source" and "free software", open content materials can also be described as free content, although technically they describe different things.

	Open content
		Open content, coined by analogy with open source, describes any kind of creative work (for example, articles, pictures, audio, video, etc.) that is published under a non-restrictive copyright license and format that explicitly allows the copying of the information.
		Just as open source software is sometimes described simply as Free Software (not to be confused with Freeware), open content materials can be more briefly described as free materials.
		But not every open content is free in the GNU GPL sense (for instance the Open Directory).

		I define open content as content possible for others to improve and redistribute and/or content that is produced without any consideration of immediate financial reward — often collectively within a virtual community.
		The open content license simply codifies the definition, that a specific form or quantity of content is available for use, distribution and improvement, for free.
		Participating in a open source project could, for example, help you with a future career (economic motivation on the micro level) or you could be very convinced that the software should be free for everyone to use (socio-political motivation on the macro level).

		On January 23-24, 2006, Intelligent Television hosts the Economics of Open Content symposium at MIT to bring together representatives from media industries, cultural and educational institutions, and legal and business minds to discuss how to make open content happen better and faster.
		This project is a systematic study of why and how it makes sense for commercial companies and noncommercial institutions active in culture, education, and media to make certain materials widely available for free, and also how free services are finding new (sometimes commercial) ways of becoming sustainable.
		The project builds upon written work that Intelligent Television recently completed with the support of the Mellon Foundation and Ithaka on Marketing Culture in the Digital Age, and also upon work now being completed as part of the Mellon Foundation-supported Commission on Cyberinfrastructure in the Humanities and Social Sciences.

		Source code is ``creative content'' that is subject to copyright, and so may have an open copyright license applied to it.
		The Open Publication License [5] was derived from the Open Content License after a sufficient number of authors began publishing works under this license, and the more traditional book publishers (such as O'Reilly!) found problems with this license.
		This has just changed to an Open Content project, which is just as much fun, and avoids the hassles of dealing with regular publication systems which tend to make it hard for authors.
