[lojban] Re: Wiki Copyleft?
Would it be fair to put up a notice saying from this point forward,
anything contributed to this site will be bound by copyright X. If
nobody steps forward in the next, say 3 months making a claim to any of
the material, then it will also be put onder copyright X.
You could post that notice on the site, on the lists, and optionally and
emails of people you have that you know have contributed, but wouldn't
be covered by the above.
INAL, so I don't know if something like that would actually fly. It
seems reasonable though.
As far as the flavor of Copyright X, I say just use whatever Wikipedia uses.
