What's changing?sui generis database rights● 3.0 = no mention, so effect is that compliance with
license conditions is not required where SGDR - but not copyright - are implicated

distribute, perform, display, communicate and use...but only to the extent Licensor may grant such permission and the use is otherwise restricted by copyright or copyright-like rights (such as performance, broadcast, phonogram and database rights)"

What's changing?attribution
● 3.0 language:○ name of author○ name of parties designated by licensor○ title of work○ copyright notice○ URI to work○ URI to license○ notices, disclaimers, warranties
![Page 17: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What's changing?attribution (continued)
● what if we strip it down?○ author○ URI to work○ URI to license
● URI shortcuts? ● all attribution requirements subject to
reasonableness language
![Page 18: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What's changing?privileges and immunities
● 3.0 = no language● 4.0d2 working language:
○ "Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted as a limitation upon or waiver of any privileges and immunities from the legal process or any jurisdiction or authority that may apply to Licensor or You."
![Page 19: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What are the remaining questions?
share-alike trigger
● 3.0 = collections containing SA works don't have to be SA
● 4.0 question = collections with SA works will be SA (without infecting other works)
● alignment with GPL?● expand, never contract, SA
![Page 20: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What are the remaining questions?
attribution RE: text mining
● issues:○ ambiguous legal issue○ want to avoid attribution stacking
● address with increased flexibility in 4.0 attribution○ URI shortcuts?○ all attribution requirements subject to
reasonableness language
![Page 21: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What are the remaining questions?
allowing licensor to add terms● consumer laws that require specific forms of
disclaimers of warranties and liabilities● allow licensors to add more specificity
around disclaimers? ● another case: alternative dispute resolution
for IGOs● problems = custom CC licenses, values
unaligned with CC, etc.● what do you think?
![Page 22: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What are the remaining questions?
cure breach/provisional reinstatement
● some violations unintentional● in GPL, if you violate the license but later fix
it, you get your rights back under the license● CC licenses don't allow for this● logical fix
![Page 23: Creative Commons Version 4.0 and Public Sector Information](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/556577e8d8b42a7b518b53ad/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What are the remaining questions?
porting
● public discussion coming up● now 70 jurisdiction ports● complex, long time/lag, high cost, variance in
expertise of affiliates● litigation has relied on unported● GPL not ported to jurisdictions● important community building and adoption
vehicle?
