[datacatalogs] Open-source?

Thu Sep 6 22:24:41 UTC 2012

What's "Metadata License" mean? http://datacatalogs.org/catalog/new Most of the open data catalogs I know of have licenses for the data itself, and no explicit license for the metadata.

Also, the "Url" field has a terrible name. People often paste a URL there (I wonder why? :P) but what's actually being asked for is a specifically-formatted identifier. I'd be happy to write pull requests on GitHub for these issues, as I have for other OFK projects, but I can't find the source code.
