cogdog on Warning: possible technical jargon will follow, all efforts are being made to keep it to a minimum. In our recent presentation at the 2017 Creative Commons Summit I attempted to explain how the content source for the Certificates lives as Markdown format in GitHub (that’s minus two jargon points).
