Re: [datameet] Please Comment on Copyright License for DataMeet Work
Hi all, there is a good comparison of CC vs ODBl when applied to data at http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/how-guides/license-research-data also, any specific reason to use CC 2.0? There are CC 4.0 licenses already, arguably more developed (and also more suitable for data, see link above)...

Its easy that way. If we start one fresh we can use one of ours. Lets discuss this on the list.

Re: [datameet] Please Comment on Copyright License for DataMeet Work
Additional advantage of ODbl is that different parts of a compound dataset can have different licenses, which makes it easier for pulling together stuff from different sources.

It allows all kind of usage, along with attribution, sharealike and keep it open condition. Unless we have better choice, I think we can go with ODC-ODbl.
