The CC Validator is offline while we retool it.
This service parses Creative Commons licenses, validates the RDF and displays their contents in human readable form. It is usefull for ensuring that your license accurately reflects the rights you wish to reserve (or not).
This service was created in response to a list of technology challenges published by the Creative Commons. Suggestions and bug reports are always welcome. You can e-mail them to me directly at nathan at yergler dot net.
The validator consists of a CGI driver and a handful of Python support modules. You can download the tarball here. The parsing is performed by ccRdf , a set of Python classes that wrap Creative Commons licenses. These classes provide facilities to parse, examine and emit license and work-related RDF.
You can find the latest news about the Validator at The Law of Averages, which the validator-specific archive at http://www.yergler.net/blog/archives/ccvalidator.
