Stef, It is a good step. But not sufficient.
That OpenEHR artifacts are published with such a Creative Commons License policy attached to it is a good thing, I agree. But when a new Reference Model, Archetype Model, Template models change and are published that decision is made by the owners because they own the IP and can issue any new License policy they wish. Our customers do not want to be held hostage when they invest in the exiting new technology based on En13606/openEHR. They are taking enough risks already, they feel.
