 Added my comments on the hackpad.
 Agree with Dev about the use of insignia,seals etc. There isn't a clear
 reason why this should be forbidden as long as the seals are published
 along with the dataset it should be ok
 Also on Gora's point, non-exclusive should not preclude commercial use
 of data.

 With respect to information containing identity it is more tricky. My
 initial thoughts were
 I don't think we can completely argue for no exemptions, without giving
 a clear reason why not. Because we have to ensure personally identifying
 information is kept out. Since this license applies to non-digital data as
 well, its scope is much wider than data.gov.in. People may be given
 documents by government offices where a person' identity is difficult to
 obscure. In this case even I would support that the user who has obtained
 this data shouldn't publish it openly, but he should have the right to
 access, use, adapt the data. The only place I can imagine where personally
 identifying information is vital is if someone is gathering information
 that could criminally incriminate someone. In this case I honestly don't
 know what is appropriate because publishing identity is vital to exposing
 the crime.

 Section 6.  I think as a license it should talk about only how a
 dataset licensed under such a license can be used and as such license
 should not be defining what data can be included or excluded. I think that
 "inclusion/exclusion of datasets/points" should be a part of data sharing
 policy and not license.

I have some serious concerns with the type of comments being received on
mygov on this subject.

   - Most people want the data to be closed. Weird as it might sound,
   sensitive data should be closed. These guys want everything closed and only
   gives access when you authenticate yourself (aadhaarifying everything).
   This violates the RTI act of requesting data without providing any other
   information apart from basic contact information.
   - Fortunately people want warranty of data. Which makes sense.

Public consultation on Government Open Data Use License - India through
MyGov

#OpenDataLicense, #OpenDataLicenseIndia

Dear Sir/Madam

Under 6th Pillar of Digital India Initiative, Open Government Data Platform
India (data.gov.in) is an endeavor for sharing of Government data in open
formats with an objective to improve openness, transparency, encouraging
participation of the community and emphasizing data driven decision making
to enable the delivery of integrated services.

Structured and machine readable data available in open format and open
license, for public access and use, termed as "Open Data". It allows
citizens and businesses to find new ways to use it and to create new
innovative products and services.

Open data should be accessible and licensed for anyone to access, use and
share. A License gives clarity that data can be used and shared for
multiple purposes and gives explicit permission to use the data for
commercial and non-commercial purposes. With this view, Government of India
initiate to have an Open Government Data Use License.

A committee was formed to draft the Government Open Data Use License India.
And after several round of discussions and deliberations the Committee
under the chairmanship of Sh. Suresh Chandra, Law Secretary Department of
Legal Affairs has finalized the draft of the license.

General public and stake-holders including open data community members,
professionals, academicians, data scientists, NGOs, institutions,
government bodies, etc. in the field of open data production, consumption
and management are hereby solicited to send their suggestions on draft
Government Open Data Use License - India at:

Submit Your Suggestions in MyGov

You are requested to type your suggestion in the given box of the

Re: [datameet] Public consultation on Government Open Data Use License - India

2016-07-16 Thread Craig Dsouza
Added my comments on the hackpad.
Agree with Dev about the use of insignia,seals etc. There isn't a clear 
reason why this should be forbidden as long as the seals are published 
along with the dataset it should be ok
Also on Gora's point, non-exclusive should not preclude commercial use of 
data.

With respect to information containing identity it is more tricky. My 
initial thoughts were
I don't think we can completely argue for no exemptions, without giving a 
clear reason why not. Because we have to ensure personally identifying 
information is kept out. Since this license applies to non-digital data as 
well, its scope is much wider than data.gov.in. People may be given 
documents by government offices where a person' identity is difficult to 
obscure. In this case even I would support that the user who has obtained 
this data shouldn't publish it openly, but he should have the right to 
access, use, adapt the data. The only place I can imagine where personally 
identifying information is vital is if someone is gathering information 
that could criminally incriminate someone. In this case I honestly don't 
know what is appropriate because publishing identity is vital to exposing 
the crime.

I have updated the document. My only comment was

Section 6.  I think as a license it should talk about only how a dataset
licensed under such a license can be used and as such license should not be
defining what data can be included or excluded. I think that
"inclusion/exclusion of datasets/points" should be a part of data sharing
policy and not license.

I might need to rewrite that paragraph ...

 6.c and 6.e specifically do not seem too worrisome to me, but the
 entirety of point 6 is kind of strange: where are datasets that have
 personal information, patent/trademark infringements, and that the provider
 is not licensed to supply coming from? Is the GoI saying that should the
 datasets on data.gov.in include such data, it is the user's job to
 exclude them.

 Also, 3a seems a little vague to me: what are "non-exclusive
 processes"? Suppose I have a website that uses such data, and requires
 users to log in to see the data: is that exclusive?

 All, in all, kudos to data.gov.in for taking a huge step forward in
 making their data accessible.

When we say in point 6.f. that "Identity Documents" are barred from being 
licensed, does that cover any sort of names
I mean if i am able to collect a list of students in a school along with 
their attributes, will it violate this section?

I understand this is a consultation only for data.gov.in, but the policy is
for every department. Departments like ISRO, Customs maintain their own
portals to publish large scale data. The license needs be a bit universal
and can't be confined to only data.gov.in.

Getting each dept. to publish it's own license would be a tedious task
itself. This would potentially apply to all documents being published by
government, then yes their is a risk of stumbling upon personal information
which shouldn't be published on the web in the first place.

6.c and 6.e specifically do not seem too worrisome to me, but the entirety
of point 6 is kind of strange: where are datasets that have personal
information, patent/trademark infringements, and that the provider is not
licensed to supply coming from? Is the GoI saying that should the datasets
on data.gov.in include such data, it is the user's job to exclude them.

Also, 3a seems a little vague to me: what are "non-exclusive processes"?
Suppose I have a website that uses such data, and requires users to log in
to see the data: is that exclusive?

All, in all, kudos to data.gov.in for taking a huge step forward in making
their data accessible.

Gora

IMNAL, but Overall this license looks quite ok, except for 6.c & 6.e

Does anyone have any idea why they have kept these two things out of
OpenData? As long as you don't use them to claim that these organizations
endorse you, I would wants that people should be able to use them to depict
the organization.

I remember that several years ago, the FBI had an issue with wikipedia
using their bureau's seal in its encyclopedia entry.
http://mashable.com/2010/08/03/wikipedia-fbi-seal/#G7lfD.XyKuqj

Something similar might happen, if these symbols/emblems are out of public
domain.

Devdatta
