Identity Using Web Services
05/25/2004 11:30 PMMicrosoft Corp., together with six of the industry's leading identity
management vendors, today previewed interoperable federated identity
management solutions based on the Web services architecture (WS-*).
Software companies IBM Corp., Netegrity Inc., Oblix Inc., OpenNetwork
Technologies, Ping Identity Corp., RSA Security Inc. and Microsoft
have successfully concluded work demonstrating how their identity
management technologies interoperate using the Web Services Federation
(WS-Federation) specification, part of the WS Security set of
specifications. In his Tech•Ed keynote address today, Andrew Lees,
corporate vice president for Server and Tools Marketing at Microsoft,
showed how federated identity management based on WS-Federation and
the WS-* architecture will simplify the work of IT professionals as
they seek to cut the cost and complexity of passing identity
credentials across security and organization boundaries in a Web
services environment.

03/22/2005 04:43 PMI had the good fortune to attend the Creative Commons
Europe summit in Amsterdam this week. The meeting, part of the Creative Capital
conference, was organized by the Waag Society's Paul Keller, the
public project lead of CC-Netherlands. It was one of
those great happenings, more and more frequent these days, that snap
your eyes open to Creative Commons' long-term potential, and to how
far we've come already: over 40 European Creative Commons project
leads and volunteers from Spain, the Ukraine, and everywhere in
between, brainstorming for two days about organizational structures,
promotion strategy, and tough legal issues, like a free-culture EU. I
thoroughly enjoyed seeing everyone -- many for the first time -- after
so many email exchanges, and having the chance to listen to their
stories about all their work. Paul deserves a medal (if we had those
to give out) for pulling the event together, and there aren't words to
describe Creative Commons' indebtedness to Christiane Asschenfeldt and
Roland Honekamp for coordinating, over only the last year and a half
no less, the development of such a great network of people. It was one
of those events that feels both like a milestone and yet a beginning.
Indeed, watch this space as we try to develop similar meetings around
the world. (Photos will soon follow, too.)

Here's the
post from John Batelle.....
Doug Cutting reminds me that his Nutch open
source engine is powering a beta
version of Creative Commons search. This is a great example of a
domain specific search application, in this case, the engine crawls
and indexes all CC licensed sites and lets you find stuff by how you
might want to use it. As Doug points out, there's no way the Creative
Commons could have built an engine like this had it not been for open
source. Cool....

12/19/2004 02:55 PMFriends of Creative Commons,
As 2004 draws to a close, Creative Commons is strong. In the past
two
years since Creative Commons licenses have been available, we've taken
our first large first steps with you--building some of the essential
tools, adding critical pieces of infrastructure and assembling a
vibrant
community.
In 2004, Glenn, Larry, and the legal team made huge improvements
and
released version 2.0 of the main Creative Commons licenses. These new
versions added many needed features while at the same time they
reduced
the complexity of the licenses for our users. Christine, Roland and
all
of the iCommons volunteers worldwide took that work, and have ported
Creative Commons licenses to 12 countries. We expect to add another
dozen countries early next year, and we're in conversation with more
than 70.
We've found more than 5,000,000 pages with content and links back
to our
licenses. But the commons is about more than simply putting the work
out
there. So, Mike, Neeru, Matt, and Nutch.org have collaborated to
develop
and debut a metadata search engine that makes it easy to find content
marked with Creative Commons licenses. As if that were not enough,
that
search functionality now ships with the amazing Firefox browser from
mozilla.org.
Neeru and the tech team have also worked with other software
developers
to make it easy to integrate Creative Commons licenses. The list is
long, and includes Flickr, Moveable Type, Squarespace, Manila,
Archive.org, WinkSite, plus DMusic, Soundclick, Garageband.com, and
others I'm sure I've forgotten.
We're nearer to making worry-free sampling and re-creativity
mainstream.
What better place to start than the cover of WIRED magazine? The WIRED
CD contains sixteen sampling-friendly tunes -- and includes the
Beastie
Boys, David Byrne, Gilberto Gil, Chuck D and more.
In 2005 we will continue to build our worldwide community of
contributors to free culture. We will continue to enable more images,
music, films and text, and we'll start to work on the Science Commons.
We'll have much more to tell you about it at the start of the
year.

05/26/2004 06:16 PMDigital Lifestyles is reporting that Larry Lessig has been named to a
BBC advisory board and that the BBC's Creative Archive project (which
aims to put the BBC's archives online for non-commercial re-use) will
use Creative Commons licenses:
Professor Lawrence Lessig, chair of the Creative Commons project was
clearly excited: "The announcement by the BBC of its intent to develop
a Creative Archive has been the single most important event in getting
people to understand the potential for digital creativity, and to see
how such potential actually supports artists and artistic creativity."
He went to enthuse "If the vision proves a reality, Britain will
become a centre for digital creativity, and will drive the many
markets – in broadband deployment and technology – that
digital creativity will support."

Creative Commons UK: will it flower?
Creative Commons UK: will it flower?
04/06/2005 07:37 AMCory Doctorow:
Edward sez, "Becky Hogge has written an excellent article about the
launch of Creative Commons in the UK. She discusses the problems faced
by CC in the UK, the institutions supporting it like the BBC, and how
Creative Commons will become a household name in the UK."
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), the most influential
public service content provider in the world, has been behind the
project from the start and is using the Creative Commons ideology as a
lynchpin for its core digital project, the Creative Archive. Beyond
this, institutions such as OfCom, Research Councils U.K., JISC, the
Museums Libraries and Archives Council, The National Health Service,
and the British Library are all making mention of CC in policy
documents mapping the future dissemination of knowledge and culture.
It may just represent good timing, but Lawrence Lessig's thinking has
emerged as a framework for a country looking to maintain its lead role
as a global content provider in the digital age.
By contrast, the commercial creative industries have raised the kind
of misinformed objections to Creative Commons that will be tiresomely
familiar to those engaged in the IP debate in the States. Although,
during his research, Tsiavos received a warm welcome from many of the
U.K.'s copyright revenue collecting societies, themselves keen to
modernise practice for the digital age, the music business press in
particular have been incredibly skeptical about the value of Creative
Commons. Key concerns voiced have been that Creative Commons somehow
undermines traditional copyright protection, that through taking part
in what is in the U.K. a novel "registration process," creators may
unwittingly give away their rights irrevocably, and also, in a
wonderfully pitched recursive argument, that signing a CC licence
could result in musicians being discounted by a music business hostile
to CC. For the time being at least, the idea that, as Tsiavos puts it,
"commons are not against markets; they only create new ones" appears
to be falling on deaf ears.
