Re: Linked Enterprise Data Patterns Workshop
Hi Steph, Yes, it has been announced before although there was some trouble with broken links. We are discussing whether we can extend the deadline, but people are busy at ISWC and not very available this week. That makes it both difficult to change the deadline and for people to submit. Sorry for any inconvenience.

ANN: sameAs.org over 50M
The number of URIs in http://sameas.org/ has been relatively static at just over 48M for a long time. But with the recent addition of new sets of links from Freebase, I thought it would be nice to tell you that it now has well over 50 million and climbing. Of course, size is not everything, and some of the small datasets are the most valuable. Our thanks to the many people who help us to put stuff into sameAs.org, as well as the people who report problems they find when using it.

Advocacy URL for publishing data with an explicit license
Dear list, We all know that data publishers *should* publish their data along with an explicit license that explains what kind of re-use is allowed. Can anyone suggest a good reference/link/URL that makes this case? A blog post or advocacy site or similar? Bonus points if it has specific recommendations for RDF. My preferred candidate so far is this – but it's not particularly strong on the “why”: http://www.w3.org/TR/void/#license Thanks, Richard

Try Lawrence Lessig's book, where he explains Creative Commons. http://www.ibiblio.org/ebooks/Lessig/Free_Culture/Free%20Culture.htm#p282a On 10/24/2011 08:28 PM, Richard Cyganiak wrote: Dear list, We all know that data publishers *should* publish their data along with an explicit license that explains what kind of re-use is allowed.

Re: Advocacy URL for publishing data with an explicit license
Perhaps I'm introducing more complexity into the question than necessary. A bit of willful ignorance goes a long way here. With my app for ISWC[1] I ran into the problem of dct:creator vs dct:contributor with Public Sector Information - all from the UN. In the case of UN LOCODES I was reformatting and making an extract of an ACCESS data base (linked to dbpedia). The information was not available in any sort of web format, so I was rightly a dct:contributor, and the information was Public Domain [2]. In the case of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, I did not create, and contribution was nill. UNESCO was quite clear in their wishes concerning links [3] although they offer an XML version then ask you not to change anything (nod, wink). For the app I settled for a CC Public Domain Mark with a no Personally Identifiable Information caveat (hoping Charlemagne does not mind). --Gannon [1]http://www.rustprivacy.org/2011/phase/iswc2011/index.html [2] http://live.unece.org/cefact/locode/welcome.html [3] http://whc.unesco.org/en/disclaimer/ From: Richard Cyganiak rich...@cyganiak.de To: public-lod@w3.org Sent: Monday, October 24, 2011 1:28 PM Subject: Advocacy URL for publishing data with an explicit license Dear list, We all know that data publishers *should* publish their data along with an explicit license that explains what kind of re-use is allowed.

LOVE This, John! Great work :) -- Old ideas are being repackaged and sold as new. Property graphs are all the rage today when it was more than 20 years ago that relational databases were being implemented as hypergraphs. Let them have their fun. We are in no real danger of a new level of human understanding, democracy and universal peace. Never have been, never will be. Hope you are at the start of a great week! Patrick -- ! :)! Matthew M.

Talis has written about this issue or encouraged others to write for quite a while. Here are a few links. There are probably others I have forgotten about. http://blogs.talis.com/nodalities/2010/02/sharing-data-on-the-web.php http://blogs.talis.com/nodalities/2009/07/linked-data-public-domain.php http://blogs.talis.com/nodalities/2007/07/open_data_licensing_an_unnatur.php HTH Ian On Monday, October 24, 2011, Richard Cyganiak rich...@cyganiak.de wrote: Dear list, We all know that data publishers *should* publish their data along with an explicit license that explains what kind of re-use is allowed.
