Follow-up Comment #42, task #14528 (project administration):
> Take for example a "user" who deposits a 3D structure but does not have the
authority to make the work public domain - i.e. they are not the copyright
holder. Then the "user" and not the Protein Data Bank is legally responsible
for the copyright violation. Again this is a legal shield for the PDB.
If this means that the real copyright holder of those data may sue users of
your package for unauthorized distribution of their data, then I believe this
is an issue with your package. You should avoid the possibility of such
outcome.
