Content Re-Licensed under Creative Commons
posted by akrowne on 2009-07-24 15:34:24

All PlanetMath content has been re-licensed under the latest terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, to the Creative Commons By/Share Alike License 3.0. The terms were specially negotiated as an instance of the FDL's blanket-relicensing provisions. The new license page with details and links to the old and new licenses can be accessed here.

The reason for this re-licensing was to move to a license more appropriate for a massively-collaborative web site, as the FDL was intended for linear documentation suitable for direct printing. Wikipedia has already made the change, and discussion of the issue can be found here.
