	Open Publication License - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Open Publication License or OPL is a license used for creating free and open publications created by the Open Content Project.
		The license is generally focused at academics, however some artists have found it suitable to their tastes.
		The OPL is now largely defunct, and its creator suggests that new projects not use it.

	ONLamp.com: Open Source and Free Documentation Licenses, Part 2: The Open Publication License
		This is to say that these licenses do not require that licensees themselves distribute the work, or modified versions of the work, only under the license under which they themselves received the right to distribute the work or make modified works from it.
		The copyright for the licensed work, as with these academic licenses, remains with the original author and publisher, although virtually every exercise of rights under copyright law is freely permitted to licensees and there is no requirement that derivative works be licensed under the Open Publication license.
		Second, the licensor can limit the commercial exploitation of the licensed work by adding the sentence "Distribution of the work or derivative of the work in any standard (paper) book form is prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the copyright holder" to the license or the license reference.

	GNU Free Documentation License - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The current state of the license is version 1.2, the official text of which can be found at http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html.
		The license was designed for manuals, textbooks, other reference and instructional materials, and documentation which often accompanies GPL software.
		While the Document itself is wholly editable, and is essentially covered by a license equivalent to (but both-ways incompatible with) the GNU General Public License, some of the secondary sections have various restrictions designed primarily to deal with proper attribution to previous authors.

	bridges.org - our perspective on Open Content (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Open Content allows authors to share their work and enrich their community and society with the product of their labor, while still retaining some control over how it is used.
		Open Content, like Open Source software, allows a work to be much more widely distributed and utilized than if it were sold in a traditional manner.
		Open Content means that individuals and our peers in the development field, who might not otherwise afford it, can benefit from our research and writing.

	Various Licenses and Comments about Them - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
		The primary incompatibility is that this Python license is governed by the laws of the "State of Virginia", in the USA, and the GPL does not permit this.
		The use of this license by the University of Utah exemplifies a dangerous trend for universities to restrict knowledge rather than contributing it to the public.
		Likewise, if you use this license without either of the options to make your manual free, someone else might decide to imitate you, then change his or her mind about the options thinking that that is just a detail; the result would be that his or her manual is non-free.

	Wired News: Expanding the Universe of Ideas
		The Open Publication License, or OPL, allows creators in any medium to release their work into the public domain for reproduction and modification, while providing the means to preserve their rights to the printed, commercial versions of their work.
		When authors submit their work to an academic journal, the publication typically devours all of the rights to the text in perpetuity, leaving only few lines to be quoted here and there by future authors, Wiley said.
		The Open Publication License formalizes the peer review process that has driven software development on the Internet for more than 30 years, said Eric Raymond, one of the co-founders of the Open Source Initiative for software.

		It began with a brief introduction on the 'history of computing'; how the source code was always kept open in the public domain and what differences in the software development and the culture around it were brought in by 'copyrighting' the software.
		The language of the open source license was compared to that of the others to show the level of intimidation and obfuscation they project.
		The "tragedy of the commons" is the familiar notion that widespread public use of a commons leads to its inevitable depletion.

	Licenses II - Open Content Explained
		Licenses II The Open Content License (confusingly shortened to OPL), covers any copyrightable material that is digitally available.
		The Open Publication License was created in response to the Open Content License, when traditional book publishers found problems with the license.
		To obtain a license, one simply identifies desired licensing terms via a web form, and the appropriate license is automatically determined based on these results.

	Open content
		With this license, authors in any medium can release their work for reproducing and modifying while still having a means to preserve their rights.
		The license I am using, which is without options, conveys the rights that some of those Creative Commons licenses use and are probably compatible with those licenses, so that someone could potentially add a chapter under one of those licenses.
		In the case of publication licensing, I expect the Creative Commons Organization to become the nexus for unification of licenses for written text.

		Materials for which commercial redistribution is prohibited generally cannot be used in a GFDL-licensed document, e.g., a article, because the license does not exclude commercial re-use.
		If you put a copy of the license in an invariant section, that that older version will need to be distributed with the text even if you're putting it out under a later version.
		From the article: ''However in some specific cases, commercial re-uses may be fair use and in that case such materials do not need to be licensed to fall within the GFDL if such fair use is covered by all potential subsequent uses.'' It is not possible for all potential subsequent uses to be fair use.

	Why Use a Free / Open License?
		Although the details vary from license to license, the privileges usually involve allowing the reader to freely redistribute the work and often allowing the reader to modify the work.
		The restrictions involve the license itself---while free to modify or distribute the work, the reader is not allowed to change the license under which the work is distributed.
		The benefits of an open license, at least for scholars and educators, are self-evident.

		A new public license -- the Open Publication License -- promises to bring the power of the open-source software movement to video, audio, and text while still preserving authors' rights to profit from the calluses of their creative hands.
		While OPL books fit best with open-source causes, the publishing model is not without perils for the publishing community, Petrycki said.
		An optional clause in the OPL gives authors the right to prevent others from producing commercial print versions of their work -- a fact that assuaged only some of O'Reilly's concerns.

	Bruce Perens' Open Source Series
		The books are all about Linux and other Open Source software, so they're directed to a clientelle that cares that the texts themselves are Open Source licensed.
		Since the retail channel is filled as soon as the paper versions come out, it removes most of the incentive that a second publisher would have to reprint the books while they are new.
		It is an Open Source license in that form, but would not be if any of the options were taken, as they restrict modification and commercial use.
