Summary:
"On Tuesday, the Metropolitan Museum of Art moved to make all of the public-domain images of artwork in their possession—around 375,000—free for anyone to use under a Creative Commons Zero license, known as CC0. The move to encourage open access to the museum collection is a huge step forward in the open content movement, an initiative that was largely controversial when it first began, but one which is now increasingly the norm."
