The table below distinguishes a number of different types of relationship that may exist between original material and derivative material: i.e. Copying, Contextualisation, Enhancement, Supplementary Work and Compilation. It shows how these 5 categories of derivative may be dealt with under the AEShareNet licence regimes. It shows requirements for vetting, ownership of the additional layer of copyright and the derivative as a whole, and requirements for affixing copyright notices and AEShareNet licence marks.

|---|---|---|---|
| Exact Copies: | |||
|
Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-U marking must be retained. |
Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-P marking must be retained. | Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-S marking must be retained. | Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-C marking must be retained. |
| Contextualisation: | |||
|
Allowed. Vetting not required. Copyright in the contextualised version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the contextualisations) vests in the original copyright owner. Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-U marking must be retained. |
Probably not allowed (to be determined). If allowed may or may not be limited to in-house uses. No vetting, even if contextualisation allowed. |
Allowed. Vetting not required. Copyright in the contextualised version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the contextualisations) vests in the original copyright owner. Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-S marking must be retained. |
Allowed. Vetting not required. Copyright in the contextualised version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the contextualisations) vests in the original copyright owner. Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-C marking must be retained. |
| Enhancements: | |||
|
Allowed. Vetting not required. Copyright in the enhanced version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the enhancements) vests in the enhancer, but original copyright owner retains concurrent copyright in the original version. Enhancer permitted to apply own copyright notice to the enhanced material. The original copyright owner's copyright notice not required or permitted. |
Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-P marking must be retained. |
Allowed. Vetting not required. Copyright in the enhanced version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the enhancements) vests in the original copyright owner, unless otherwise agreed at time of vetting.Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-S marking must be retained. Copyright owner may instead agree to divide copyright, so that enhancer claims all copyright in the enhanced version on condition that the AEShareNet-S marking is retained. Thus operates as for AEShareNet-U. |
Allowed. Vetting required. Copyright in the enhanced version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the enhancements) vests in the original copyright owner, unless otherwise agreed at time of vetting. Original copyright notice and AEShareNet-C marking must be retained.

Thus operates as for AEShareNet-U. |
| Supplementary work: | |||
|
Allowed. Vetting not required. Copyright in the supplemented version (including any fresh layer of copyright arising from the new modules) vests in their creator, but original copyright owner retains concurrent copyright in the original version. Creator permitted to apply own copyright notice to the supplemented material. The original copyright owner's copyright notice not required or permitted. |
Not allowed. Vetting does not arise. |
Allowed. Vetting required in relation to the work as supplemented. Copyright in the supplementary components vests in their creator; copyright in the original work stays with the original copyright owner, unless otherwise agreed at time of vetting. The alternative would be for parties to agree to consolidate copyright in the supplemented version in one or other set of hands, i.e. the 2 options as above for Enhancements. |

Allowed. Copyright ownership as above for any variations to the included material itself. No vetting required.Copyright in the compilation layer itself vests in the compiler. |
Allowed. Copyright ownership as above for any contextualisation, but no vetting of the included material itself. The context in which the work is included would need to be vetted, although not necessarily the whole compilation. This may affect the form of copyright notice the original owner requires to be applied to their component. Copyright in the compilation layer itself vests in the compiler. |
