Hi, DMTF is looking at CC BY. Is that OK? It allows commercial use. When I'm looking at OSI approved licenses[1], CC does not come up. Is there a reason why? And about the file inclusion - FYI, in current version users will have to download the files themselves and configure sushy to the location where they are downloaded. This is not very user-friendly, and in future we might look at improving this somehow given that we also cannot always rely on users having access to the Internet during installation to download the files automatically. But for now this is how it will work. Regards, Aija [1] https://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical On 07/30/2018 06:25 PM, Allison Randal wrote:
Well, documents are copyrighted just like code, so DMTF would need to say what license they're releasing the documents under. Creative Commons licenses are popular for documents and data. Some Creative Commons licenses are compatible with Apache 2.0 (make sure it isn't one of the "Non-Commercial" variants).
You're still better off having users download the DMTF files separately. And, no matter how the users get the files, DMTF needs to release the files under some form of open content or open data license, so the users have permission to use the files.
