Hello, my name is Jake. Welcome to my new, in progress user page. Make sure to check out my boxes!

[edit] Edits

My main edits usually involve Linux software and Christian Music. Among these, several things on Steven Curtis Chapman and Casting Crowns. I have been expanding this more recently, to all sorts of things that I can research. I never knew I would be branching out so much...

[edit] License

I believe that Wikipedia needs to be in a Creative Commons, or better public domain, license. Thus, the original version of articles I create are released under the public domain. Any later versions of the article are not under public domain, unless I edit them. As soon as anyone else edits an article I create, then it is again under the GFDL.

Also, being under public domain, I will allow you to release it under any other license, although I prefer that you keep it in a copyleft license. Wondering why? Here is part of a Google Talk conversation, until I write it on here.

(14:40:31) Me: Creative Commons makes content easier to distrubute and add to your site. With GFDl, you have to provide a complete history of the file. There are also several different ways to do the license, making it more complex. Also, the GFDL is not very compatible with other copyleft-type licenses, where the Creative Commons is.

Update: I am back :)
