changed Target asset types: Creative work (i.e. text, picture, sound, movie), Dataset

was Target asset types: Creative work (i.e. text, picture, sound, movie)

Review finding The record targeted dalicc:CreativeWork alone, while the 4.0 International parent CC-BY-SA-4.0 targets dalicc:CreativeWork and dcmitype:Dataset. This port names a database as licensed subject matter in its own text: clause 3(e), in English rendering, grants the right "to make any use of a substantial part of the contents of a database, in the case where the licensed subject matter is a database", and clause 3 adds that where the Licensor holds the sui generis right of the database maker under Greek copyright law implementing Directive 96/9/EC, the Licensor waives that right. Clause 4(e) exempts the parts covered only by the sui generis right from the restrictions. Since the text is explicit, dcmitype:Dataset was added here rather than left to the library wide decision that covers the ports whose text says nothing about databases.

Review decision Review decision 1: every Creative Commons record except the CC0 dedication, plus the Open Database License and the Open Data Commons Attribution License, forbids sublicensing in as many words.

Manual edit The endorsement prohibition rested on no sentence of the text; the default rule for endorsement now supplies it.

Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Greece version 2 2026-09-24

added Permission: Extract or reuse a substantial part of a database

Manual edit The port settles the sui generis database right in its own text: clause 3(e), in the English rendering the review quotes, grants the right "to make any use of a substantial part of the contents of a database, in the case where the licensed subject matter is a database", and clause 3 adds that the Licensor waives the sui generis right of the database maker under Greek copyright law implementing Directive 96/9/EC. dalicc:suiGenerisDatabaseRights is now permitted, and it carries no duty because clause 4(e) exempts the parts covered only by the sui generis right from the restrictions.

changed Target asset types: Creative work (i.e. text, picture, sound, movie), Dataset

was Target asset types: Creative work (i.e. text, picture, sound, movie)

Review finding The record targeted dalicc:CreativeWork only, while the 4.0 International parent CC-BY-SA-4.0 targets dalicc:CreativeWork and dcmitype:Dataset. This port settles the sui generis database right expressly. Section 1 defines the subject matter so that "Soweit Datenbanken oder Zusammenstellungen von Daten einen immaterialgueterrechtlichen Schutz eigener Art geniessen, unterfallen auch sie dem Begriff Schutzgegenstand im Sinne dieser Lizenz" (databases and compilations of data that enjoy sui generis protection are themselves subject matter of this licence), and Section 3 closes with the waiver "verzichtet der Lizenzgeber auf sämtliche aus diesem Schutz resultierenden Rechte". Section 4 adds that the restrictions do not bite on the parts that are subject matter only because of that sui generis protection. Because the legal text names databases as licensed subject matter and disposes of the database maker's right in the grant itself, dcmitype:Dataset was added here rather than left as a proposal, which is how the same question was decided for the Portuguese, Czech and Azerbaijani ports. The ports in this review group whose text has no database clause at all, Ecuador and Brazil, keep the proposal.
