License selection action for wiki license

MoinMoin already has support for a site-wide license page, controlled by the page_license_page and page_license_enabled configuration parameters. The MoinLicense action provides a license selector which utilizes Creative Commons' web services. This allows users to choose from a list of CC licenses and generate a wiki license page. It also includes an action which allows users to license a particular page with a different license.

The actions are paired with a macro which will display a license button. The markup generated includes machine-readable RDFa.

I believe that including this action with the basic MoinMoin distribution would solve a common problem for many community wikis: making it clear how the collaboratively produced content may be reused. -- NathanYergler

I looked in to some of the routines

/plugin/action/WikiLicense.py uses to much not used imports, hmm may be all routines did this.

I suggest that we make a Moin package out of it. and also include some text and icons and then also work with page_footer1 like I do at www.kielwiki.de -- ThiloPfennig 2007-01-11 11:43:22
