My version of the character Ada from "Ada & Zangemann", a Creative Commons license (BY-SA) book for children and a funny story about Free/Libre and Open-Source. It's written by Matthias Kirschner and illustrated by Sandra Brandstätter. It is great to see new characters in the Free Culture, especially because Ada is so cool. 💜
You can find it printed in English, French, German, Italian → https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/
Last month the long-awaited switch to version 4.0 of the @creativecommons license went into effect for #Wikipedia and its sister projects! :cc: :ccby: :ccsa:

It also felt cool that I was probably one of the only customers asking to reproduce a drawing they were formally allowed to use thanks to #CreativeCommons ❤️
Hats off to the author, you don't see that kind of, uh, skillful rhetoric chicanery every day. Like "generative AI doesn't compete with artists because artists are not in the data market". 😬

What do the Prime Minister of France, the founder of #CreativeCommons, the COs of #RedHat and @opensuse and thousands of children have in common? They all love 💕 "Ada & Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream"
💥 We want to go create an animated movie about Ada’s story!
🚀 To produce the movie in English, French, German, and Italian will cost us €40,000. Your donation will make a difference for many children who will be inspired by Ada!
Wikipedia :wikipedia: is a multilingual free online encyclopedia written and maintained by a community of volunteers, known as Wikipedians, through open collaboration and using a wiki-based editing system called MediaWiki -- at least that's what our Wikipedia article says (https://w.wiki/W).

Thanks again to @brettmakesgames for organising it, and (many) thanks to all the participants. 😻

If you dealt with it properly and still want to use "all rights reserved" that's absolutely fine.
But maybe you could inform yourself about all the options.
Il libro “Aggiustare il mondo” di Giovanni #Ziccardi sull’ #hacker Aaron #Swartz rappresenta un ottimo caso di applicazione della licenza #CreativeCommons CC BY-SA: pubblicato dalla nostra casa editrice in formato PDF e EPUB, è disponibile anche su #Wikimedia in formato HTML, un esempio concreto delle possibilità di condivisione e disseminazione offerte dalle pratiche di #OpenScience.
