Next week we want to launch the updated https://savecodeshare.eu website
(attached the draft how it will most likely look like). For the launch
we will also need some share graphics people can use on social media and
on blogs, etc.
They should be in the same format (width/lenght) as the PMPC ones:
http://download.fsfe.org/campaigns/pmpc/share-general/
Attached you find a draft for the footer of those graphics. We would
like to include quotes (see below) from the white paper with the logos
of the organisations and create share graphics out of that.
Beside that there was the other idea to have a git output (white on
black):
$ git push origin master
To gitlab.com:you/dotfiles.git
! [rejected] master -> master (non-fast-forward)
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@gitlab.com:you/dotfiles.git'
hint: Your code has been rejected because our filtering technology,
mandated by Art 13 of the EU "Copyright Reform", suspected a copyright
violation. In case you think that is a mistake please get in contact
with your git platform provider.
on a share graphic. Other ideas were:
- Use it as template for other quotes
* ex.: "git push" results in suspected copyright infringement
* ex.: VLC player acts up
* ex.: Screenshots out of different editors (vim, emacs, yada yada)
* Graphics with git, gitlab, other services from paper.... Then
"Endangered by new EU legislation. Act now https://savecodeshare.eu"
* Cultural Heritage endangered by EU copyright reform? (Software
Heritage)
* Graphic: Command line output:
"$docker pull gitea/gitea:latest - Warning: you might be liable for
your users" #savethecode
Would anyone of you be able to do that until Tuesday, or latest
Wednesday next week? Please tell me asap, else I need to find another
solution for this. And yes, feel free to be creative about it.
Best Regards,
Matthias
# Quotes from White Paper for Share graphics
“Those kind of laws (the proposal) are destructive to the open source
innovation.”

“Nowadays almost all companies and individuals in Free and Open Source
Software are using version control systems to develop, plan, coordinate,
and document their work. The information in those version control
systems embodies precious technical and scientific knowledge and
humanity cannot afford the risk of losing it.”
Roberto Di Cosmo:Founder/CEO _ Software Heritage

“Almost all of our development is based on a web-based version control
repository, and such tools play a key role in the processes of open
source development and collaboration.”
Richard Brown: Chairman _ openSUSE

“If the new copyright directive in any way hinders innovation for the
modernization of the (...) public sector then the directive is defective
and harmful.”

(warning: not labeled with a license for reuse & sharing).
“Mozilla’s mission includes the principle that “free and open source
software promotes the development of the internet as a public resource.”
Many code hosting sites, some run by volunteers, participate in and
enrich this ecosystem. For these sites, existing licensing systems,
including open licensing, are effective. Requiring them all to create
expensive scanning mechanisms and intrusive user monitoring, and deal
with the resulting false positives, would establish a prohibitive
environment for the development of open source software. This unintended
negative consequence underlines just how broad, disproportionate, and
dangerous the proposed Article 13 is for the health and vitality of the
creative and open internet, and we continue to strongly oppose it.”
Raegan MacDonald : Senior EU Policy Manager _ Mozilla

“To what extent KDE is directly impacted by the proposed regulation
fully depends on whether the above setup would make us “information
society service providers storing and giving access to large amounts of
works and other subject-matter uploaded by their users”. If yes, then we
would probably need to move most of our infrastructure and organization
outside of the EU.”
Thomas Pfeiffer: Board Member _ KDE

“These particular types of software development service or ‘platform’ do
not belong in the proposed Copyright Directive. However, as a
precautionary necessity, it is important for the European Parliament and
Commission to provide legal clarity and reassurance early on in the
first stage of the co-regulation procedure.”
James Lovegrove: EMEA Public Affairs Director _ Red Hat

“Article 13 creates a high level of uncertainty for the software
industry and the free and open source software community, which are
drivers of economic growth, jobs, education, innovation, and the
democratization of technology. The article should be struck entirely, or
at least tailored to exclude software development.”
