Damian thinks that ODbL should apply to the dataset as a whole, so applying it 
to collections of datasets is inappropriate - see below.

Is there prior art / consensus that applying it to chunks of the db at a time 
is a bad idea?

problem is the difference between URI-for-object and URI-for-document. There is 
a license statement at the bottom - ODbL, yay! - > but it currently is attached 
to the URI used to identify the *place* - which is not differentiated from the 
document itself. Hi Jo, This may either beg the question or simplify things ;-) 
ODbL covers databases not individual or small collections of facts. I'd expect 
the licence to apply to the larger dataset this page is part of. You could try 
something like: <> void:inDataset <...dataset id...> .
<...dataset id...> a void:Dataset ; dc:license 
<http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/>; . Damian
