@Ok3ch, Yeah I have to live with it, but I think I have not done an extensive outreach for guys to really know about this CC license, Wikipedia, Wikimedia etc //Stephen On Wed, Feb 22, 2012 at 9:52 AM, Okechukwu <okechukwu@gmail.com> wrote:
They will not understand what you are doing - You and that guy who wants to take pictures for his keeping are all the same - just live with it

Hello,
I actually visited the City council and they advised me that I needed a letter from the Ministry of information!
They usually charge 2600KES per day for taking pictures of buildings and monuments.
I was wondering why they should have such bureaucratic processes while for my case am doing this on a voluntary capacity for a non-commercial endeavor under the umbrella of the Wikimedia Foundation.
After capturing the photos I will upload them to WikiCommons under the CC license.

Hello,
We are a group of volunteers under the umbrella of Wikimedia foundation which is non-profit. We will be having no tripods just simple DSLRs like the Nikon D5000, smartphone cameras and so on.
Someone charging me for 4K+10K per street is totally insane. So to
say.
If anything we will be doing a great task of putting Kenya's capital on the web.
These images shall later be uploaded to WikiCommons under the CC license which implies they are free for reuse either commercially or freely.
Anyhu, I will make a point of going to Central police station because of the current invasion by KDF into Somalia. Plus the CCN who am sure will charge some amount.
Thank you for your feedback about this.
Regards, Stephen.
