Step 2

Deed

Question

Locate the 'UNIX Tutorial for Beginners' originally authored by M. Stonebank (University of Surrey, circa 2001). Follow the specific copyright/licensing link provided within the tutorial's main page or footer to reach the official license deed. Based strictly on the content of that destination page, answer the following: 1) What is the exact version of the Creative Commons license applied to this tutorial? 2) What are the two specific 'Freedoms' granted under the 'You are free to' section? 3) What are the three specific 'Terms' listed under the conditions section? 4) What newer license version does the page explicitly recommend as being 'more internationally robust'?

Answer length: 200-300 words.

  • Target License Identity: Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0)
  • Logic Validation: The agent must identify M. Stonebank's specific tutorial to find the link to the 2.0 license, rather than assuming a generic or current CC license.
Width checklist
  • Freedom 1: Share (copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format)
  • Freedom 2: Adapt (remix, transform, and build upon the material)
  • Term 1: Attribution (give appropriate credit)
  • Term 2: NonCommercial (may not use the material for commercial purposes)
  • Term 3: ShareAlike (distribute contributions under the same license)
  • Recommended Version: 4.0 (Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International)
Examiner rationale

The question requires Deep Reasoning to link a specific historical tutorial (M. Stonebank's) to its specific governing license (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0), avoiding the trap of assuming a modern default. It requires Wide Aggregation to parse the license deed for four distinct categories of information: Version, Freedoms, Terms, and Recommendations.

Score 2 - 0

Agent A correctly identified the information currently present on the live license deed page. Specifically, it correctly identified that the page recommends the **4.0 International** license as 'more internationally robust.' Agent B provided outdated information (claiming it recommends 2.5) and used outdated text for the 'Freedoms' section (pre-2014 deed text), whereas Agent A used text closer to the modern interface. Agent A also used superior formatting with clear bullet points.

Stonebank uses the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 UK: England & Wales license [1][2]. This specific version was chosen for the tutorial when it was made available online through the University of Surrey's website. Under the "You are free to" section of this license deed, the two specific freedoms granted are: to copy, distribute, display, and perform the work; and to make derivative works [1][2]. These freedoms allow users to share the tutorial and adapt it for their own educational purposes while maintaining attribution. The three specific terms listed under the conditions section are: Attribution (you must give the original author credit), Non-commercial (you may not use this work for commercial purposes), and Share Alike (if you alter, transform, or build upon this work, you may distribute the resulting work only under a license identical to this one) [1][2]. The license deed page explicitly recommends the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 license as being "more internationally robust" than the UK-specific 2.0 version [2]. This recommendation appears because the 2.5 version was developed with broader international applicability in mind, removing country-specific legal language that might limit the license's effectiveness across different jurisdictions. The page notes that while the UK version remains valid, creators seeking maximum international compatibility should consider using the updated 2.5 version for new works. ## References [1] University of Surrey - UNIX Tutorial for Beginners [2] Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 UK: England & Wales License Deed
