In this segment we are going to talk about how to change your license. I'm going to give you a demonstration on how to change your license within WikiSpaces. So what I'm going to do here is I'm just going to tab over to my browser again using Mozilla firefox within the Apple Macintosh platform and I am on the home page of my Dawn VTC wiki. What I'm going to do is I'm going to scroll down to the settings link under the adopt a space medium in the middle, I'm going to click on settings and this is going to bring me to my space settings. Now this is a wealth of useful information for changing your more advanced options and I encourage you to check this out on your wiki. But the part that we are interested in at this point is listed under the license heading. Now what is a license? Very basically a license is the way that you are going to allow other people to use your content on your wiki. Now there are several different licenses, we have two listed here, the creative comments, attributions, share alike, three point licenses and make a new free documentation license and the only way your really going to know which one you prefer is to do some research on those different licenses and their constantly changing and being updated, so I encourage you to do some research on that, decide which one is right for you. But currently the default for a WikiSpaces, wiki has the listing of attribution where you let others copy, distribute, display and perform copyrighted work but only if they give you credit which is required for creative comment license. And also the option for share alike where you allow others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the license that governs your work. So you can change this license to a new free documentation license which is a form of copy left intended for use on a manual, text or other document and copy left is the converse of a copyright, copy listing a term that wants to distinguish itself from copyright and that it's wanting people to share their content or their books or whatever media they are contributing to, people share that with a copy left using the new free documentation license. So as you can see here you can mix and match these or have no license specified if you choose. Lot's of different options here and again I encourage to check these out, do research and decide which one works best for you.
