- Tim O’reily quote
- Software is increasingly open sourse but the data is more important and continues to be locked down. this is a problem that must be addressed.
- In the library…
- current model is broken
- pay to contribute
- limited data mobility
- lipstick on a silo
- contribution can and should be free
- shared data shoul dbe mobile and accessible, whilst adequately protected
- guarantee freedom to access and share but preserve the quality
- creative commons doesn’t work on data since it’s an extension on copyright, not database right
- Open Systems
