copyleft.org is a collaborative project to create and disseminate useful information, tutorial material, and new policy ideas regarding all forms of copyleft licensing. This site itself is licensed under a copyleft license, and has received contributions from experts around the world. Thus, copyleft.org is the premier "meta-project" of copyleft: it's useful copylefted information all about copyleft itself!
 

	
 
Examples of Copylefted Material:

The primary project currently on this site is a tutorial book entitled [*Copyleft and the GNU General Public License: A Comprehensive Tutorial and Guide*]. This guide describes the policy motivations for copyleft, presents a detailed analysis of the text of various copyleft licenses, and gives examples and case studies of copyleft compliance situations.
