Sorry, I think I need to explain and ask one last question:

I asked for CC-By, because that allows the licence to be changed when you make derivatives, and because it wasn't clear yet which licence we might want to use in the end, and because this wasn't my decision to make.

Martin, you took it on you to count the votes. I think CC0 is out of the question by now. What is the current status?

(Mc asked about CC-By, I think. I bet CR would prefer CC-By to CC-By-SA, from what I read.)

Do people now just want to go with CC-By, either because they like it most, or to just 'be done' with it and start working? (I'd like to have some kind of final decision).

Subject: Re: [Inkscape-devel] License for the new manual

Update: I got a reply from Hinerangi, and she wrote:

"I'm OK to relicense it to whatever you guys need (I guess the original
author also needs to be OK, if translations are considered a derived
work...). "

So the 'Get started with Inkscape' book on flossmanualsfr.net
<http://flossmanualsfr.net> is now
officially CC-By.

(The below licence request with the 'SA' was an inadvertant mistake... I
didn't want to determine or change the licence before an official
decision has been made. Fortunately, I got it right in the private mail
to her.)

Hi Maren, Victor, CR,

Yes, let's settle this. CC-BY 4.0

https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Shall be used for the inkscape manual.

I believe there's a weighty enough consensus not to beat around the bush any more.

Best Regards, Martin Owens
