[open-government] [ogdcamp] Workshop on licence choices within each country

Tue Nov 8 15:39:47 UTC 2011

Hi all

I wanted to thank everybody for the discussion. I will also add German view
later to the pad.

Just a Word on Thomas comment: Yes, in most jurisdictions a
"no-license-policy" is Not a Good choice. On the other hand in some
 countries, like Germany some PSI is under Public Domain, so applying a
license would actually add unnecessary restrictions - besides the fact that
it is legally incorrect. in this cases the best solution might be a "Public
Domain mark" that indicates the Data is allready in Public Domain so no
licens is needed / applicable.

Not to add any license regime to a piece of content means in many national
legislations to fall back to restrict copyright regulations by default.
