Permission Adventures

Since Second Life changed its EULA to allow residents to maintain their IP rights, an active topic of discussion has been how its permission sytem needed to change. After nearly a year of wrangling -- and lots of help from Creative Commons plus great advice and feedback from James Grimmelmann -- the initial version has been released to our residents for comments. Given how many non-SL users have also speculated on this subject, the proposal is available here on my spiffy new SL specific-blog.
