Tyler,
Cristian Opincaru and I gave a presentation on this at FOSS4G'2006
( http://www.foss4g2006.org/contributionDisplay.py?
contribId=196&sessionId=52&confId=1 ) which may provide some basic
information on this. The OWS-4 activities do also involve 52N
components.
We were not pelted with rotten tomatoes during the presentation, but
since it was given the morning after the evening reception and few
were in any condition to get worked up about it.

My disclaimer: I am working with OS and with OGC on what is called

Creative Commons and GPL.
Hi Josh, you brought up some good points in that note. I was
wondering about GeoDRM specifically. I see that the 52North group
is focused specifically on this - are you connected with them at
all. Can you help demystify the whole GeoDRM concept. It implies,
to me, in my ignorance the same kind control by vendors and removal
of distribution rights from users. How is GeoDRM different from
the DRM we hear about in the music industry, etc?
Curious,
Tyler
