But OGC could, as a service to its membership, work with SC to define standardized classes of licenses that would help geospatial data publishers with their licensing needs all along the permissions spectrum.

How about OGC support for the Science Commons work on a "public domain"

That's not going to happen. OGC has many national mapping agencies as
members and USGS and OS are never going to allow this. Plus it isn't
any of the OGC's business as to what sort of licenses are used on
data.
