    robert, do you also have all the audio tracks? i don't know if i gave them
    to you. but they should also be in the CVS. when you compress them (they
    are already tight in ogg) try to take the original audio files from the cds
    i gave you. the files alltogether should not exceed the size they have now.

    which reminds me, frans, did you put them there Wink ??? i remember you have
    a copy of the cd with jingles and tracks.

    also: the idea was to make a demo database on the demo server with these
    files that can be used after a fresh installation and also for the live cd
    to demo.

    Robert has done the re-encoding already, and he was about to upload it
    to ls-dev (I created a user account for him there) when I last heard
    from him.

    it is under GNU GPL. CC was not an issue at the time of recording. but GNU
    / GPL should fit our needs.

    i am not sure if robert has anything but the jingles. i haven't heard from
    him. if it is only jingles and not the music as well, i suggest - tomas -
    you could attempt the reencoding (not losing the tags!) from ogg to mp3.
    the quality is low as it is. but that's a file size issue - we don't want
    this to be best radio quality, but demo material for playlists.

    Hi Micz,

    Sorry I didn`t call you sooner, I had some troubles this morning with
    my cable internet connection (%$#@&*) Smile)
    Anyway , on ls.dev.campware.org are placed mp3 samples for LS , jingles
    and also Dominique music .


    About our yesterday`s discussion, you are right of course.
    We can connect LS station on audiomix ,( or some other player programe
    maybe ).
    My sugestion was only of strategic and principiel nature for future ....
    Sorry if I sounded a bit rough.Wink

    it was, we aggreed on it in Prague.

    also, GNU GPL only applies for software source code, and music is no
    such thing...

    is there any problem with publishing these files under CC non-commercial
    contribution share-alike?

    hm. i think tomas would need to do the recoding, because there were three
    bands and only three (or four?) tracks from each record.

    i know it is all open content, so we can use the entire record, but i
    thought it is only fair to not include ALL the material, because they also
    want to sell CDs... plus with the three bands there is a bit more variety.

    in other words: please delete the dominique tracks and tomas: please
    reencode the music from ogg to mp3 to go online.

    all tracks are taken from CDs which are also for sale. i had the bands to
    agree with a number of songs to go into the package. the songs are all
    royalty free and we can use them for free.

    we should make sure that all future files will be under creative commons
    license. these ones are not. but if you go to the creative commons site and
    check their music, CC is not necessarily a pedigree for good music Wink

    i suggest that we include what we have, because i don't have the time to
    research and collect music for the 1.0 release to fit the CC paradigm set
    out in the last meeting in prague.

    which reminds me: we should check if the copyright metatag allows such
    licensing. because that would be the only place where i can see how we can
    publish under specific licenses.

    no. that's not the issue. there was a selected number of tracks to go into
    the database. only tomas has the final CD now - doug is offline, frans gave
    it to tomas. so tomas, please, reencode to mp3.

    under what license?

    I'm sure you're aware, as LS is published by MDLF, which is registered
    in the US, US copyright law applies here. and according to that, if
    something is not explicitly licensed, its copyright is all rights
    reserved copyright - any attempt to reproduce without direct, written
    permission of the copyright owner _signed by both parties_ (on paper) is
    a breach of law.

    thus if we publish 'just like that', or just say 'it's royalty free' -
    anyone downloading our tarball, burning our CD, making a copy to someone
    else will break the law.

    do we want to create criminals from all poeple interested enough in LS
    to actually get a copy?

    I'm not talking quality here.

    but see above - that's a _major_ legal risk we're going into.

    if you could convince there artists to royalty free use, couldn't you
    convince them in a way that their contribution is actually legally useful?

    Micz,

    Don't give up so easily. Can't we get those artists of yours to sign the
    goddamn agreement? I can get our lawyer(s) to get us some sort of nice
    legal document that would make this nice and legal. Next time I'll
    personally write a set of 32 songs (produced by our one and only RK) for
    demo purposes and sign them off to Campware, but for now, let's stick to
    your artists. Seriously, if you think they'd be willing to sign something
    that would legalize the whole endeavor, let's choose that way.

    for the reasons cited before, could we make sure that all audio
    published with LS is properly licensed (including the jingles)?
