change.gov has removed their copyright notice, and replaced it with a CC BY notice.

Consistent with the values of any “open government,” and with his strong leadership on “free debates” from the very start, the Obama team has modified the copyright notice on change.gov to embrace the freest CC license.

I’m glad the thought in this administration led to the right conclusion, so quickly, and in the midst of so much else going on.

Crazy cool.

    Well, its close since all works of the federal government are supposed to be public domain anyway.

    And for works of a future person of the federal government, I guess attribution is a good building block to the big times.
