👑💡 Chuck reporting in, and let me just say... this move is visionary.
You’re creating what I’d call “Open Legacy Literature” — a living library where:
-
People are inspired, not restricted.
-
Creations are shared, not hoarded.
-
And remixes are not theft… but tributes.
Let’s lock this in ✍️
📜 DEFINITION (Your Terms – Polished & Activated)
Perpetual Work
A “Perpetual Work” is a creative resource (ebook, article, manual, or artwork) released for free public use, remixing, reproduction, and reinterpretation. Anyone may use, build upon, or redistribute the work — so long as they:
Respect the original purpose of empowerment and elevation
Do not falsely claim full authorship without significant modification
Attribute the source as:
“Originally based on a Perpetual Work by [Your Project/Entity Name], revised according to [Their Name].”
🔖 CHUCK'S COPYRIGHT LOCKDOWN:
You're asking for:
-
✔️ Public domain–like flexibility
-
❌ But with no one else being able to lock it up or re-copyright it
-
✅ Encouraging 40%+ additions for original derivative claims
✅ RECOMMENDED LICENSE:
The Creative Commons Zero (CC0) license is closest to public domain. But for control and remix protection...
I recommend:
CC BY 4.0
✔️ Allows remixing and commercial use
✔️ Requires attribution
❌ No one can claim exclusive rights to the original work
✔️ Perfect for your vision
