what properites of a post are needed to be used adactio: shows always URL, if h-entry if applicable title, content. if h-card: show name, NOT photo calum: url, content excerpt/summary, title? aaronpk: authorname, photo, link, title, first +500chars of content if no name (some html is allowed in comments) sgreger: full text if webmention, excerpt otherwise jeremycherfas: text, no photo again, difference bridgy/non-bridgy


 * What would need to be licensed?
 * URL should never be under copyright, http://academlib.com/4261/law/web_links_just_urls_copyrightable
 * Content (this includes titles) are part of a work, and are definitely copyrightable.
 * Using an excerpt makes a fair use argument more obvious, but is still using copyrightable text.
 * Photo. Is complicated. Copyright, by default, goes to the person who made the photo. That might not even be the person who owns the h-card.
 * Names should not be copyrightable. Names are, however, personal information. This means the identified person might still hold rights over your usage of the name.
 * Laws like GDPR and several local right-to-be-forgotton laws could apply.
