Re: SUO: Free vs. copyright




Jim Shoening, said:

'Free' does not mean no copyright.  Cyc's current upper ontology is posted
on the web for free use, but it has a copyright that has prevented SUO from
using it, and Doug Lenat has never come through (in spite of verbal
interest) with copyright permission to SUO.

Jim, if you have been in touch with Doug on this in the past, perhaps
you could re-contact him and see if his position changed. You might also
wait till July and read the final/formal details first.
