Obviously for open access content the nc does not apply, for licensed
content we charge commercials (like chemical abstracts).****

Yes, you can mine the oa artils. It has An attribute in the metadata saying
open access or sth like that.****

** **

The springer open articles are on the biomed central platform so you can
mine them he way you are used with bmc.****

Peter,

I hope and expect this is a good base to continue working on this. I'd like
to stress that we always have been committed to be flexible and
constructive when talking about mining for non-commerci purposes. ****

AH! There was no mention of NC - simply that UCSC had started to mine with
consent.

How do you deal with Chemical Abstracts mining your publications? Do you
charge them?

 ****

Btw, has the issue with the license of springer open access articles you
mentioned ever been solved?****

** **

You solved most of it earlier this year when you moved to CC-BY for
hybrids.

I do have a problem with labelling. It can be difficult to find which
articles are OA. And I assume we can mine  the hybrid Gold OA without
explciti permission. In contrast Wiley make their articles almost unusable.*
