Dear Rebecca Gellatly,

Thank you so much for your warm and helpful response — I truly appreciate your time and support.

Yes, I will make sure to properly credit the OCA by including links to the respective modules, referencing the maintainers when known, and displaying the OCA logo and website on both my YouTube videos and website content. My goal is to contribute positively to the community by spreading awareness and making it easier for others to adopt and understand the excellent work done by the OCA and its contributors.

Since many modules are maintained by various individuals and companies, it can be quite challenging to reach out to each of them individually for permission, especially for larger or older repositories. With that in mind, I’d like to kindly ask if the OCA has any official or general content usage guidelines or a common approval policy I can refer to.

This would help ensure that my content remains compliant with the OCA’s expectations and also act as a reference in case there are any concerns raised in the future. Having something official would provide me peace of mind and clarity when creating and publishing educational material around OCA modules.

Once again, thank you for the incredible work the OCA team does — I’m excited to help promote and support the community through quality educational content.

Warm regards,

Harsh Dhaduk

Hi Harsh,

Thanks for reaching out.
I did see your other email come through internally but we lost the link somehow.
My understanding is people are free to talk about and share OCA Modules. As you've mentioned it would be great to ensure credit is given where credit is due - so you can link back to the modules and creators/maintainers who have done the work creating them and of course mentioning/tagging the OCA will help raise awareness of our association and the awesome contributions of the whole.
Maybe specific people/companies may want something more in terms of recognition but I will let them discuss with you if that issue arises with different modules.

Hopefully that helps.
Warmest regards,
Rebecca

Dear OCA Contributors Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

My name is Harsh Dhaduk, and I’m an active content creator focused on Odoo development. I manage a YouTube channel and website where I share educational videos and articles related to Odoo's technical and functional aspects.

I greatly appreciate the valuable contributions made by the OCA team through open-source Odoo modules. I am interested in creating tutorials, walkthroughs, and technical explanations based on these OCA apps to help the broader community understand and utilize them effectively.

Before I proceed, I would like to confirm whether there are any specific guidelines, rights, or permissions I should be aware of when using OCA modules for educational content. My intention is to contribute to the community by spreading awareness and knowledge while ensuring proper credit is given.

Please let me know if there are any recommended practices, attributions, or licenses I should adhere to when publishing this content on my Youtube / Website.

Thank you for your time and for all the incredible work the OCA team does.

Best regards,

Harsh Dhaduk
