[CWBP2] Question Regarding Ownership

[Falconius]

We aren't using NC or any other creative commons copyrights, we decided they didn't work for us way earlier in the thread. The CWBP 2 has fully control of the copyright with contributors having final say over their specific work if they want to prevent something they made from being published. We will need their assent to publish anything, if there is no response from them we must assume we don't have it and either not publish that work or remake it. All materials contributed to the project however are freely available to project members. Becoming a project member merely requires that one participate, by making something or contributing something. The CWBP 2 is collectively "owned" by its members.

If we publish we can work out the details then, but I think the proceeds should be distributed (after covering costs) equally to any of the contributes with finished material in the package. ie if you wrote and finished a story and it was included in the package, or you made a map, you'd receive a split of the profits. So this would exclude those who only made foundational material that other stuff is based on, but wasn't actually included in the package. So for instance if we (Azelor and myself) decided not to actually publish the world map and neither of us did anything else that was actually finished enough to make it in the product we would not be compensated despite the fact that other things that were included were based off of our world (assuming we weren't editing or doing some other contribution towards publication).
