What do I misunderstand? The definition of ‘proprietary’ according to GOOGLE is clear. proprietary prəˈprʌɪət(ə)ri/ adjective adjective: proprietary 1. relating to an owner or ownership. "the company has a proprietary right to the property" behaving as if one owned something or someone. "he looked about him with a proprietary air" 2. (of a product) marketed under and protected by a registered trade name. "proprietary brands of insecticide" Origin
late Middle English (as a noun denoting a member of a religious order who held property): from late Latin proprietarius ‘proprietor’, from proprietas (see property <https://www.google.ie/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=define+property&sa=X&ved=0CCMQgCswAGoVChMI487Y5ovaxwIVYoHbCh2t5gFm>). On the openEHR website we all can read about the Legal Status. And that is clear, also. OpenEHR specs are owned by the company that is owned by UCL, only.
