For what its worth, I completely agree that one of the things this
group could add to this domain is better documenting openness / legal
status of different linguistic datasets.

CKAN has a dedicated licensing field to do this (which distinguishes
between attribution / public domain / sharealike licenses, and
others), and I think this should be one of the first things we start
to try to do for as many publicly accessible datasets as we can. A
mapping exercise for open data in linguistics.
