English Licenses

Our public copyright licenses incorporate a unique and innovative "three-layer" design:

  1. Legal code: the traditional legal tool that most lawyers know and love
  2. Human Readable Deed: a format that normal people can read... a handy reference for licensors and licensees
  3. Machine Readable RDF: recognizes that software, from search engines to office productivity to music editing, plays an enormous role in the creation, copying, discovery, and distribution of works (Three “Layers” Of Licenses - About The Licenses - Creative Commons)
