Part License Policy

[Orion Pobursky]

Now that we've had the new CA in place for almost 2 years and enforcement in place for a year:

No new parts will be released without being solely CC BY 4 licensed

Additionally, all CC BY 2 parts, regardless of age or hold status, are free to be re-authored, from scratch, by any current Parts Author. From scratch means from a blank file without referencing the old part in any way. To avoid the potential for cross-contamination, part origin and orientation can be fixed after creation if you are re-authoring official parts.

Parts with CC BY 2 only or those with both 2 and 4 too?

There are no CC_BY_2 only parts. I meant those parts that are not solely CC BY 4. I edited the post to clarify.
