IMathAS Community Question License (GPL + CC-BY)

This license is designed to cover questions written for the IMathAS online homework system or compatible question players, including WAMAP.org and MyOpenMath.com.

Questions written for the IMathAS question player are considered independent programs, not derivatives of the system they were created in, and not libraries or linked code, therefore the license of the IMathAS software or compatible authoring/playing environment does not apply to the questions, and the license of the questions does not apply to the system the questions are played in.

Question code is provided under the GPL 2.0 license (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html), with this additional requirement:

The generated HTML output of question code must be licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), and accompanied by:

• the attribution requested by the authors
• a link providing means to obtain a copy of the question code.
• It is acceptable to provide access to the question code via a web form or email request, and to limit distribution to instructors.
• To prevent page clutter, it is acceptable to have only a prominent and visible “Licence” link display with the question, and have the licence and attribution details display when the user clicks that link.
• When using a large number of generated questions in a physical work, it is acceptable to use a bundled attribution statement (e.g. “These questions were created by multiple authors”) if a link to a website or public-access IMathAS course is provided where the detailed attribution can be viewed.
