Translator's Notes (NT)
Version 1 - revision 5
[050426 ] Introduction - Preliminary work waiting a RFC (for July of 2005). Translation based on Spanish version. Working on reasoned integration of the Internet© modifier.
[050515 ] Introduction - Within the work/version difference, the author's capacity on the work (and the participants' equal rights on their respective versions) implies that the authorization to exploit the work outside the Internet must also apply to all the versions. It is not justifiable under the natural reason, nor equitable in a contract, to authorize one version of the work, rather than another. This wisdom appears already in the usual translation right transfer agreements (by interposed publishers) which are drawn up for all languages and all countries.
[050528 ] GLT - Suppressed the principle of "fidelity to the license" as a requirement, and with it, suppressed any relationship with protected licenses (like the GPL or even the CC-by-sa). The logical and formal coherence of the Internet© modifier is enough to preserve the visibility of any version of the work on Internet. Explicit restriction of any right transfer to a "final user", if he does not participate to the exhibition of the work version in Internet
[050622 ] Development of the administrative representation concept (Article 13 ). Development of administrative representative in Title IV (Article 71), who complements the executive mandatary. The administrative representative, selected by the TAH and approved by quick way, whose mandate is limited to the duration of its electoral mandate, allows solving a double issue: first, the TAH has no legal capacity to act under his name, then the need to nominate some representative to represent Entities and participants.
[050623 ] Systematic application of terminology and concepts. Direct, restricted and trusteeship protocols. Quick or associative way - Ordinary (executive, administrative, arbitration...) or constitutional (elections, investiture, exposition...) procedures. Binary or plurality voting.
[050630] Deleted: a mediator in exercise has not any more to accept his designation as Procedure Spokesman, if requested by a Holder Spokesman. This is a more realistic approach (this rule cannot be applied), and the need to negotiate with a mediator is a preliminary guarantee so that the procedures actually requested have been discussed and that they have possibilities to be solved. This applies to all the procedures: ordinary, administrative, arbitration procedures. The TAH itself cannot thus present motions if no mediator agrees to represent them.
[050702 ] General principles. (Re)Introduced the principle of non-contradiction, which determines the hierarchy of Council > Convention > Resolution > Mandataries and entities
[050703 ] GLT. Simplification of the clause relating to the recovery of the expenses of exposure. Restrictions: added a clause of free use of the license text in other works, under another holder's signature. The GLT is only protected as long as it is an integral part of the Convention.
[050710 ] Precision of subordination rule: the location of jurisdictions that determine the legal capacity of TA representatives and tutors of the Convention are always the holder's country jurisdictions.
[050720] CITI-A3. Autonomy of languages. The right to use the own language is a natural right (before: "fundamental"), and as an opposite, the copyright is a civil right. The right of version is born (then will die) with the author's person; the copyright is a civil development of the State.
[050720] CITI-A2. The holder who authorizes the issuing of the certificate is the Holder of the exploitation rights of the Convention. It is the tutor, the TAH or even a representative expressly elected for that.
[ 050907 ] The RFC editor rejects the publication of the informational RFC without respecting its own rules and does not answer a following mail. Deferred for a second and last tentative at the beginning of 2006
[050911 ] Insertion of a new Title: "Participants to the convention". For a better legibility
[050911] Article 24: Added the mention of the Entity representative, who is just an executive mandatary.
[050911] Article 95: Suppressed the rationale related to the payment rules of deductions. It depends on tax/technological context and its place is not inside the Convention. On the other hand, the principles that govern this rationale are stated. In particular, the rule stating that deductions will be poured in the exploitation funds managed by District Entity, when no Management Entity exists, or when people do not want to pay the deduction to the available Management Entity.
[050911] Article 35 and following. Revision of the role of the voluntary voting officer, who is not any more appointed by the T.AT. The voting officer also intervenes in the cancellation of a direct vote. This solution reinforces the guarantees of the direct vote: voting officer, design of the ballot box, and generation of the censal file. The Internet system used for drawing lots may use, for example, a random mechanism activated by the secretary, with a result calculated on the modulo of the value obtained by the total number of volunteers, alphabetically.
[051121] Article 92. Time of compulsory permanence is now fixed by procedure, in appendix, typically for one year.
