Thanks Karen. Great it sounds like they are adopting a policy which include
CC0. Does anyone know (or can anyone work out) whether CC0 will be a
requirement for all metadata in DPLA?
Two bits that I find quite bizarre:
* "Gore pointed out that in her experience working with prospective
data-providers, most cultural heritage institutions are comfortable with
the idea that the vast majority of metadata is not copyrightable" ->
Presumably talking mainly about US GLAM institutions. Is this true? And
does 'not copyrightable' equate to 'happy to release in bulk under CC0'?
* "Courant said that he thinks CC0 is still too restrictive of a license,
which is why he likes
using it as a ‘backstop’, which the policy does." -> Not sure what 'too
restrictive' means in this context? Too open? Too strong? To legally
specific? Anyone know?
