[od-discuss] Getting the Open Game License accepted under the Open Definition

Mon Aug 12 13:28:55 UTC 2013

I think we do, and should, aim to cover "Open Content" as well as "Open
Data". Reading the notes seems to imply main issue was being outside "Open
Data" expertise. IMO that shouldn't be a reason for full exclusion.

PS: really sorry not to make the meeting (had a pre-existing conflicting
call). Thanks for the prompt notes and main thing for me is helping to take
through actions from *previous* call (esp those with Herb re getting up
license texts and merging existing licenses repo).
