What are the differences between Creative Commons-England & Wales and Creative Commons-Scotland licences?
From a user s point of view, their end effect is much the same, as it is for all CC licences from anywhere in the world. There are however a number of differences, mostly driven by legal differences in the two countries, but also by different views on drafting style, in how they get there. Thus, the Scottish licence (like the Spanish, Dutch, and French, for example) is written as a contract between the licensor and the user; but the English licence (like the Canadian, Israeli,and generic, for example) is not. They have, of course, different jurisdiction provisions. The language of the Scottish licence (which was drafted later) is simpler. And so on. But there s nothing to worry about in either case, if you re happy with the general idea!
