data? not necessarily.
(there’s other resistance in the wire)

tension between “choice”
and interoperability

the data “rights” conundrum...

uses triggered by “making a copy”
Tuesday, June 30, 2009
what if use is orthogonal to
“making a copy” ?

attribution = license
citation = norms

(which one applies whether or not
a copy is made?)

waive all rights necessary for data
extraction and re-use
no obligations (share-alike, contract) to
limit downstream use

Explicit dedication of data from public
science into the public domain via PDDL or
CCZero is strongly recommended and
ensures compliance with both the Science
Commons Protocol for Implementing Open
Access Data and the Open Knowledge
Definition as applied to data.

the semantic conundrum...
