the growth of the CC-BY license ironically demonstrates the inadequacy of the
license for data mining. This chart is posted in image format on a CC-BY
licensed blog. The data per se has not been posted for download, an
traditional or open access, need to have someone point out to them that
if they wish to present data / chart to make a case, they should present their
research method and be prepared to accepted scholarly critique.

OASPA has posted a picture of a chart of CC-BY growth on their blog:
http://oaspa.org/growth-in-use-of-the-cc-by-license-2/
The chart by itself is difficult to interpret. For example, to what extent is
CC-BY growth conflated with OASPA membership growth or overall open access
growth?

Government need not, and should not, mandate the means to transition to an open
access scholarly publishing system. This is best left to the market.

just won't work. The result will be a corpus of CC-BY licensed locked-down PDFs
or even more open documents with locked-down image-based charts and graphs that
are useless for text and data-mining and re-use.
