information access allows us to exploit technologies and change the processes
of scientific innovation
information flow drives the processes by which we manage complexity in science
network-driven process revolutions
computers + technology standards = Internet

this query is probably prohibited in the presence of copyleft / non commercial licensing on the underlying databases
when “freedom” isn’t free:
what do these ideas mean in
a world of integrated data?
license propagation: whatsoever you do to the least of the databases, you do to the integrated knowledgebase
license propagation: whatsoever you do to the least of the databases, you do to the integrated knowledgebase
(the most restrictive license wins)

resolving 1000 licenses: impossible.

the public domainis the foundation.
not the license.
daily global information aggregation is legally secure
the freedom to integrate
the public domain: allows all of us to participate in making “too much data” a Good Thing
licensing: adds “too many contracts” to “too much data”
how do we get legal interoperability among databases?
protocol for open access to databases
“The motivation behind this memorandum is interoperability of scientific data.”
promote legal predictability and certainty.
be easy to use and understand.
impose the lowest possible transaction costs on users.
our conclusions after 18 months of research(and lots of lawyers)
is it legal?

is it legal?
There are no mechanisms to manage transfer or negotiations of rights unrelated to integration (for example, patent rights over uses of the data).
1 Converge on the public domain by waiving all rights based on intellectual property
2 Converge on the public domain by waiving other statutory or intellectual property rights.
3 Converge on the public domain by imposing no contractual controls.
4 Provide for interoperation with databases not available under the Protocol through open metadata

a protocol, not a license.

call to action
1. copyrights matter. retain enough rights to enable new technologies
2. data matters.ask authors to make data available under OA terms.
3. invest in the preservation and annotation of the public domain.OA doesn’t stop when you post.
