Without clear licensing, the ontology itself has low reusability.
Even when the licensing is clear, unnecessary restrictions will reduce reusability as well.

A good choice would be CC0/ Public Domain, which maximizes reusability.

Thanks for the note @Daniel-Mietchen! The group had actually agreed on CC-BY which is mentioned at http://www.obofoundry.org/ontology/duo.html

I'll take 2 actions items:

  • reflect this in the GH documentation (this repo)
  • ask the group at our next meeting whether they want to revise that decision: @MKonopko can we please add to agenda?
