This repository contains a presentation on Creative Commons I did for my grad school research group. It contains an overview of how Creative Commons works and an example of programatic control of CC-licensed entities. The programatic control is implemented in Ruby and contains a test suite that can be used to show that it's implemented correctly.

• The presentation is in Beamer/LaTeX. To build, given a machine setup to typeset this sort of thing, just type "make" in the current directory.

• Code is in the code/ directory

  • cc_licensed.rb is a ruby module that can be mixed-in to other classes to gain behavior of a CC-licensed entity
  • book.rb is a simple class representing a book that gets the module defined in cc_licensed.rb mixed into it.
  • tests are in code/test/ts_cc.rb. You can run them by typing "rake" in the code/ directory.
