Migration of MSO links to MSE links
Dec 16, 2013 at 21:56 comment added Jaydles StaffMod @gilles, 1. Yes, we care. 2. No, this isn't clear. Or simple. Many edits likely don't require attribution, but some probably do. We're looking into both the appropriate interpretation of the license, and better ways to err on the side of more attribution. We have a couple of ideas, but it's going to take some time to figure out which match what's needed.
Dec 7, 2013 at 18:04 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @Joshua I emailed them in 2011 and only got a response showing they didn't care, so don't hold your breath. It was Jeff at the time though.
Dec 7, 2013 at 13:30 comment added Joshua Dwire @RickyDemer I contacted them on Monday or Tuesday, but I haven't received a response yet. I wonder if multiple people contacting them would get a faster response or would just be annoying. Probably the latter.

Nov 25, 2013 at 23:25 comment added jmac Great answer. Just one thing to add (though it's always unpopular) is that this is almost certainly not a massive issue because any suit brought against SE for misattribution of edit content will almost certainly fail to demonstrate any damages (let alone damages high enough to make up for the time/expense of filing and arguing the suit). Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer either, just another guy on the internet. I just find issues like this incredibly minor and made in good faith on the part of the SE team without any long-lasting consequences. Fixing it is good, but I won't lose sleep otherwise.

Nov 25, 2013 at 21:33 comment added Joshua Dwire This is the best answer so far and draws from official sources, but I'm really hoping for a response from the SE team, since only they can change anything. I'm trying to decide whether to accept this and make a new post asking for action, edit this post into a feature request, or just wait for the SE team. Currently, I'm planning to wait for a response from the SE team. If by the time your bounty on this feature request expires we don't hear anything from the SE team, I'll contact them directly.
