Hi Rodrigo,

Thank you for these questions. There have been questions about the India
program as well, so these questions about Brazil can be added to the list of 
issues for WMF to investigate.

I am not personally familiar with either of the Brazil or India catalyst 
programs,
but I suggest that you contact Asaf or Anasuya if you don't get a response
on this list or on the discussion page within two days.

Thank you again for bringing up these questions.

Pine

Hey Pine,

For me, this is just a small and visible part of the iceberg, sadly.
I not will go deeper in that, because I do not have stomach for, patiences,
and way to do that.

I already send massages to Asaf pointing this, in respect. But thanks for
the tip.

Cheers.

 Despite what the museum director says in the press release, they are not
 providing images in accord with open access principles as they forbid
 reuse in commercial publications, like school textbooks.

 Well, arguably they are, barely. Green open access in scientific journals
 includes NC licenses. It's far short of being proper free content, as you
 note.

Indeed - Green OA is simply the right to make available for reading
(and usually in fairly constrained circumstances). Direct reuse
doesn't enter into it.

Open access is a very multifaceted term. :-)

Context point:
«Form 990 is used by tax-exempt organizations, nonexempt charitable
trusts, [...] to provide the IRS [U.S. revenue service] with the
information required by section 6033.», and that section is around
conflict of interest and reportable transactions.
