I read some more on wiki and found the caveat further on in the entry, But the point here is that Aley (AKA Arcadia Asylum & Aley Aria) wants these items on the other grids, she also produces all her Items"under The GL GNU Opensource Licensing". and has granted full permission for them to be exported as opensource freebies. I can understand the reasons behind the export restrictions that SL & LL have put in place, imagine all the hard work you do to create content as an opensource freebie just to have some one Export it to other grids and sell it as his or her own creation, when I first visited IW i found a ton of textures that were very reconizeable, where these the work of SL creators ? or where these the original content creator on IW under a different avatar name ? very hard to tell. even today we at the Arcadia Asylum Libraries are still finding people selling her items old and new and the same folks that buy them eventualy find us and all the free content we answer the questions about this the baest we can and advise them to approach the seller s and demand a refund and file the usual AR. Long and short of this whole thing is that i have come to understand thanks to all of you that if this is to happen Aley will have to down load the items her self. d-loading the textures and sculpt maps is not an option due to the shear volume she has produced "Several Thousand" according to her and from the volume of work she turns out 3 weeks from concept to beta testing in world I have no reason not to believe her. Thank you all again for the sound advice and input. Prof. Grey

I knew I would get sound advice, thank you all, I was uncertain , Wiki said that the act of copybotting was not a violation of the TOS , I think the a update might be in order, even thou technicaly it is not (for the creator) under any other conditions it most certainly is, this is truely sad All of the items Created over the years by Aley's different identities have been made with GNU open source licensing. Sl needs to create a download method for creators to use for their own content. Once again my friends Thank you. Prof. Grey

Ok here's the set up, I'm BrianL61 Landar (A.K.A. Prof.Grey) I run the Arcadia Asylum Living Libraries and freebie centers. Recently I was approached by several Different individuals who want to start freebie centers over on inworldz and on the OS grid. I have spoken With the lady behind the Arcadia Asylum and Aley Aria Avatars (she has returned to SL as Aley Resident.) And she said yes do it, And has given me authorization to download all of her items past and present for upload to these worlds. How can I legally do this with out violating The TOS, I know having her permission is the first step. But what software do I need that is OK with The TOS. I have read on the wiki that copybotting is not a violation of the TOS, unless used to STEAL someone else's work or intellectual property. I thank you all for any help or advice You may have.
