I share Denny's worries. If we adopt ODBL, all WMF projects *will have to* add a note about structured data taken from Wikidata (like "data are released in ODBL" or similar), or they should be bi-licensed (CC-BY-SA 3.0 Unported + ODBL what.ever). If we keep licensing Wikidata with a CC0 (which is, in fact, a PD-like license), that allows Wikipedia to re-use data with CC-BY-SA 3.0 Unported without any problem. Then, when CC-BY-SA 4.0 will be released, we can migrate ALL projects to the new license. I don't see any other possibilities - I do know something about licensing and stuff, but I may be wrong. -- Luca "Sannita" Martinelli http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utente:Sannita _______________________________________________ Wikidata-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l
