Openness 'Mandatory,' Says Wikipedia's Jimmy Wales
,----[ Quote ]
| Wales is on the board of Creative Commons, a nonprofit organization that has
| released licenses for music, photographs and other content that are more open
| than traditional copyrights. He also predicted that as Creative Commons
| licenses become more popular, it will help contribute to the culture of
| openness and transparency that is taking shape online.
|
| "Openness and transparency are going to be absolutely mandatory," Wales
| said. "The public expects it, the public deserves it, and there are ways that
| we can make that happen today."
