[Foundation-l] commons and freely licensed sexual imagery

Thu May 14 22:35:19 UTC 2009

heh - you'd think, right? :-)

Well the issue here is that the uploader has released this image, his or her
only contribution to commons, under a CC license - but I'm afraid I think
it's reasonable to doubt the validity of this release (I think the
contributor is telling fibs).

Unfortunately, to quote the most recent commentator at the deletion
discussion "Speculation on uploader motives is not germane to this
discussion," which sort of leaves us as pig in a poke - see 5 deletion
discussions for evidence as to how a project makes the simple rather less
so....

cheers,

Peter,
