CaelLab BY-SA Content License
Not recommended for new works · Use CC BY-SA 4.0
This license is not recommended
Use CC BY-SA 4.0 instead. The CaelLab BY-SA Content License is retired. It was a short, self-drafted copyleft, and it leaves open questions that a standard license settles — how to credit properly, what counts as an adaptation, how the share-alike obligation interacts with other licenses, and what happens on a breach. CC BY-SA 4.0 is the same share-alike idea, drafted and maintained by Creative Commons, ported for jurisdictions worldwide, and recognised by platforms, archives, and reusers everywhere. There is nothing this license does better.
For code, use the CaelLab BY-SA Code License, which stays supported.
Historical terms
Still binding for works already published under this license. Kept here so those works can point at their own text; do not adopt it for anything new.
