Registering Public
Domain
Safe Creative’s Technical Solutions and Proposals

1.- Ways to register
• Single register
• Bulk Register
• Neutral API
• API as the key to interact with registries and
public domain databases

2.- XHTML code and
relevant API information
with registry standards

a.- Semantic coding
• Use the information on any web (ccREL)
• For any user and project
• Independent from software and hardware
• Copy and paste, yes

b.- Foster Public
Domain with standards
• Now is hard to trace contents because of
many independent PD projects
• We need standards for information exchange
• Standards give confidence to creators and
protect registered contents
• Registries to provide cross information with
neutral-agnostic technology
• Perdurance of registered PD contents

c.- The smallest piece of
information
• To provide most basic information such as
registry company and work code ¿ccREL?
• To improve searches: kind of work and license
and country
• XML semantic approach to give more
information

3.- Searching and
providing information
• Search engines to collaborate with registries
• Provide relevant PD information
• Special care: education and handicapped
persons
• Registries to offer cross results

Conclusion
• Standarization
• API automation
• Cross information exchange
• Relevant PD search results
