As I mentioned the other day in IRC to Rufus, my only comment is that
the strong anti-copyleft position might not be the best. Public domain
terms might be appropriate for large institutions, particularly state
funded ones, but small independently funded organisations that improve
data should be able to prevent their work from being enclosed by the
likes of Amazon and still be able to call their data Open.
