At least you can download it. They can't undownload it once you have it, and people can distribute from what they have.

- justinclift 2y agoYeah, thus my "better than nothing" wording. :) Interestingly, also from the article: I’m much less interested in half measures, whereby the public might be granted access to scans only for, say, educational purposes, but be improperly prohibited from using them commercially. Those kinds of compromises undermine the public’s right to reuse public domain works and can lead to people hesitating to use them in any way because they are unsure of their rights and fear unknown punishments. Whereas the licence on that Rosetta Stone scan by the British Museum is indeed "non commercial" only: License: CC Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlikeCC
- autoexec 2y agoIt'd be nice if they got uploaded to archive.org or somewhere else where the public can get it without handing over a bunch of data.
- justinclift 2y agoGood idea. Are you up for uploading it and the other models? There doesn't seem to be a huge amount of them, so it probably do-able in a few hours. Or maybe even faster if scripted?
