@GregWillits @brandonvogt1 - A good idea, but CCC is copyrighted by USCCB, and costs are crazy for licensing… :-(

@geerlingguy @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 there was one our for a short time by the divineoffice.org team before the usccb made them pull it

@geerlingguy @GregWillits @brandonvogt1 What's worse, the CCC is $17 on Kindle (paperback=$9). It should be totally open. Evangelistic fail!

@BrandonVogt1 @gregwillits - I've been trying to get someone at @USCCB to listen for some time. opensourcecatholic.com/forum/topics/84

@geerlingguy @gregwillits They can't be making *that* much money off licensing. But outside of that income why else would they lock it down?

@BrandonVogt1 @gregwillits @klifk - partly, they say, so they have full control over where it appears. Not a great excuse, though.

@geerlingguy Looks like English translation is copyright by a company in UK. CCCB & USCCB may not have license to open it up.

@frdarryl - yikes! I don't even speak their language :-/ (kidding...)

@geerlingguy @gregwillits @klifk So sad. Evangelism demands that we don't lock-down the message. We shouldn't put the CCC under a basket.

@BrandonVogt1 @geerlingguy @gregwillits My Canadian edition says "exclusive distribution by the CCCB". English trans. is copyright in the UK

@geerlingguy @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 I wonder if scborromeo.org paid licensing fees? This is a problem that needs to be addressed.

@carsonweber @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 it looks like they got rights somehow. I wonder if they had to pay or not...

@GregWillits @geerlingguy @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 @carsonweber @BrandonVogt1 I know one guy who made a compendium app but can't get lic.

@nickpadley @gregwillits @geerlingguy @carsonweber We need t-shirts that say "#FreeTheCatechism" on the front and "1 Cor. 9:18" on the back

@BrandonVogt1 @nickpadley @gregwillits @geerlingguy @carsonweber @CatholicDan Why not a wiki catechism? #FreeTheCatechism

@sullijo @brandonvogt1 @nickpadley @gregwillits @geerlingguy @carsonweber @catholicdan i could see that going well, or very poorly

applemachome Jeffr_y Kett_rer
@GregWillits @carsonweber @geerlingguy @brandonvogt1 agreed. at least with a creative commons license non commercial

@applemachome @gregwillits @geerlingguy @brandonvogt1 @nickpadley @sullijo We're starting a movement! Grab your torches/clubs!

@carsonweber @applemachome @gregwillits @geerlingguy @brandonvogt1 @sullijo Honestly, I don't think they understand the power of apps.

@nickpadley @carsonweber @applemachome @gregwillits @geerlingguy @brandonvogt1 I don't know about torches/clubs. But I couldn't agree more

@carsonweber @applemachome @gregwillits @geerlingguy @brandonvogt1 @sullijo Perhaps we could give a presentation to the bishops conference?

@nickpadley @carsonweber @gregwillits @geerlingguy @brandonvogt1 @sullijo @USCCB if they wont let others make apps, they should make one

December 21, 2011 #

geerlingguy Jeff Geerling
@applemachome @nickpadley @carsonweber @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 @sullijo @usccb - I asked if they were making one, said 'stay tuned' :(

December 21, 2011 #

@geerlingguy @applemachome @carsonweber @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 @sullijo @usccb I will be first in line to buy a catechism app!

@nickpadley @applemachome @carsonweber @gregwillits @brandonvogt1 @sullijo @usccb - Writing up a blog post… maybe we can start something.
