While this<br>means we are potentially excluding people from the contest, we are<br>still making the contest more about the community – not just a<br>community curated contest.</p></blockquote><p>I would like to add that the original intent – while it unfortunately<br>doesn't show in the comment – was to allow *derivative* works. Or in<br>other words, as long as the original work you are taking has a suitable<br>license and you modify it enough to clearly stand as its own<br>(derivative) work, the submission is completely OK.</p><p>Looking at the previous contests, this policy would *only* have affected<br>submissions made by the Xubuntu team members, myself included. I want to<br>make this contest even more about the community, which is why I'm<br>suggesting this change. (Or in other words, I wouldn't call a contest<br>you can win by submitting somebody else's work you found from the<br>internet a "community" contest.)</p><p>Please do comment on these suggestions within a week so we can get on<br>with the planning (and launching the contest) soon.</p><p>Cheers,<br>Pasi</p><p>[1]<br><a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/2017-September/011543.html">https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/2017-September/011543.html</a></p><p>--<br>Pasi Lallinaho (knome) › <a href="https://open.knome.fi/">https://open.knome.fi/</a><br>Xubuntu Website Lead & Council Member › <a href="https://xubuntu.org/">https://xubuntu.org/</a><br>Xfce contributor › <a href="https://xfce.org/">https://xfce.org/</a><br>Shimmer Project co-founder › <a href="https://shimmerproject.org/">https://shimmerproject.org/</a></p><p>--<br>xubuntu-devel mailing list<br>xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com<br><a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel</a></p></blockquote></body></html>
