Copy link

What

I continually want to download the plaintext versions of the licenses, so that I can bundle them with my software repositories. However, there are no easy links to the plaintext versions in the XHTML pages for the licenses. Adding a link would be very useful in cutting down on search time.

Links

Here are the plaintext files I am thinking of: https://creativecommons.org/2014/01/07/plaintext-versions-of-creative-commons-4-0-licenses/

Here is an example of an XHTML page without a license file that is downloadable: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode

How

There are a few possible solutions:

  • I can PR a link for you to the XHTML pages;
  • We could make a link to a single GitHub repository where all of the plaintext licenses are kept
    • I could make this repo, and then move it to Creative Commons organization, or just have it on my profile, I guess.
  • We could make an exportable license package for software; npm i cc-by-sa-4.0, for instance.

Finally

Thank you! Great work, creative commons. :)
