Some notes on my issues currently with ourmedia

I am making this page at the suggestion of JD.

1. I keep having to fight with my chosen license. It gets reset back to all rights reserved traditional copyright and I want CC BY-SA. This is a serious issue with copyleft type licenses. If we make use of the work of another person that is say BY-SA then our new work must also be BY-SA, if they come along and find (C) they could get very upset. (to say the least.) Why is this happening?

JD: More info, please. Are you saying that when you upload a file to the site (through the website? through SpinXpress), the license appears as traditional copyright?

Or are you saying that when you select the Edit tab, make changes and hit Submit, it changes to traditional copyright? thanks, good input, important that we fix this.

more to come.

When I go to change the license back to Cc BY-SA, the Date or year created: is getting set to today's date instead of the actual date that was entered before.

It used to be that I could have a different password for tools and the main site and be logged in to both at once. Now I do have separate passwords, but logging in to one seems to log me out of the other.

I just changed all the traditional copyrights to BY-SA and now all of those items seem to have disappeared. (The ones left were already By-SA 2.5.) What gives with this?

more to come.
