So there has been some behind-the scenes work on the Open Data Commons licences, not all of which I can mention at the moment because of confidentiality reasons. What I can say is that we are working on a new draft that reflects some recent developments, and that it should be available within the next couple of weeks.
This draft will be different than the first round in that it will be very important to get lots of feedback on it from anyone interested in the field. This is because it pushes the envelope a bit on what’s previously been done in free and open source software licensing and in open content licensing. Thus we will be counting on your input.
Stay tuned.
