title: Add plain text format to CC Legal Tools
6+
---
7+
problem:
8+
Plain text formats for the 4.0 licenses and the CC0 public domain dedication
9+
were created using a manual process ([Plaintext versions of Creative Commons
10+
licenses and CC0 - Creative Commons][blogplaintext]). Only the English
11+
versions of the legal tools were formatted as plain text. Additionally, that
12+
manual creation process was not without errors and is not sustainable.

15+
---
16+
expected_outcome:
17+
Extend the CC Legal Tools App to generate deterministic plain text versions of
18+
the 4.0 licenses and the CC0 public domain dedication.
19+
---
20+
contributor_tasks:
21+
The contributor will need to extend the CC Legal Tools App to generate plain
22+
text versions. The generated plain text versions must be deterministic and
23+
match the formatting of the manual versions (except where improvements are
24+
desired). Application updates must include test coverage. Stretch goals include
25+
markdown format generation and interfacing/collaborating with SPDX.

title: Add RDF XML format to CC Legal Tools
6+
---
7+
problem:
8+
The CC Legal Tools App is currently using legacy RDF files for the machine
9+
readable layer of the legal tools. Those files are out of date and contain a
10+
few errors and omissions. This technical debt also prevents future work to
11+
improve the machine readable layer of the CC Legal Tools.
12+
---
13+
expected_outcome:
14+
Extend the CC Legal Tools App to generate deterministic RDF XML files for all
15+
of the legal tools.
16+
---
17+
contributor_tasks:
18+
The contributor will need to extend the CC Legal Tools App to generate RDF XML
19+
files. The generated RDF XML files must be deterministic and well organized and
20+
based on current RDF specifications. Application updates must include test
21+
coverage. Stretch goals include planning any breaking changes and working on a
22+
static API.

title: Modernize termination-of-transfer WordPress plugin
6+
---
7+
problem:
8+
Due to its current setup and structure it is difficult to install from the
9+
codebase directly into a WordPress installation (i.e. via Composer).
10+
Additionally, the codebase has sections that need to be checked and updated to
11+
current coding standards and best practices.
12+
---
13+
expected_outcome:
14+
The plugin’s structure and setup follows current development standards, increasing maintainability and ease-of-use.
15+
---
16+
contributor_tasks:
17+
The contributor will restructure the repo, adjusting any necessary code to meet
18+
current WordPress plugin development standards, and best practices for PHP and
19+
Javascript (follow appropriate ECMAScript standards), while creating a
20+
directory structure that allows the codebase to be deployed into a standard
21+
WordPress installation.

title: Refactor CC meta search
6+
---
7+
problem:
8+
The legacy CC meta search site doesn’t match the current visuals of the rest of
9+
CC web entities, and it’s built on PHP which requires a more complex hosting
10+
setup that can’t reside somewhere that supports simple static output (like
11+
GitHub pages). Additionally the code is set up in a legacy fashion, is not
12+
semantic, may contain accessibility issues, and contains broken meta searches.
13+
---
14+
expected_outcome:
15+
Simplify and modernize the codebase and requirements of the legacy CC meta
16+
search, improve functionality, and update the visuals to match current CC
17+
standards and norms.
18+
---
19+
contributor_tasks:
20+
Rewrite the application, maintaining its original function, as a static site
21+
on GitHub pages, using semantic, standards-compliant, and accessible HTML, CSS,
22+
and JavaScript. Update the visual aesthetic and overall appearance to better
23+
correspond with other current CC web entities.
