After further discussion, consideration and much input from various
people in the community I think we're ready to consider the current Open
Definition draft 2.1 dev for acceptance.
You can find the currentà draftà 2.1à dev version here:
https://github.com/okfn/opendefinition/blob/master/source/open-definition-2.1-dev.markdown
<https://github.com/okfn/opendefinition/blob/master/source/open-definition-2.1-dev.markdown>
The actual diff can be viewed here:Ã http://git.io/vm6W8
(note: this diff includes all changes to the repository so use the
"Files Changed" tab to see just the changes to the
"source/open-definition-2.1-dev.markdown" file.
The main discussions centred around the preamble as well as clauses 1.3,
2.2.3, 2.2.5 and 2.2.6.
Most of the issues addressed are also documented here:Ã
https://github.com/okfn/opendefinition/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=label%3A2.1
Please pay particular attention to 1.3 in your review as that clause was
one of the main reasons for this update and we want to ensure it is as
good as we can make it.Ã See discussions here
<https://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/od-discuss/2014-November/thread.html>and
here
<https://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/od-discuss/2014-November/thread.html>and
here <https://github.com/okfn/opendefinition/issues/68>.
An attribution clause has also been added to the definition to recognize
the work the definition is based on.
Please submit any further comments on the od-discuss list. Ã Ã
Please take this opportunity to raise any final objections to voting on
final acceptance of this draft.Ã If no objections are received I will
call for a vote in approximately one week.
Pleaseà disseminate this note further as you see fit and if you know of
another list that we should notify, please let me know.
Thank you,
Herb Lainchbury
Chair, Open Definition Advisory Council

1.3

- from "processed" to "fully processed"
- removed bulk suggestion - already covered in 1.2

2.2.3

+The **license** *may* require distributions of the work to remain under
the same license or a similar license.
2.2.5
-The **license** *may* require modified works to be made available in a
form preferred for further modification.
+The **license** *may* require that anyone distributing the work provide
recipients with access to the preferred form for making modifications.
2.2.6
-The **license** *may* prohibit distribution of the work in a manner
where technical measures impose restrictions on the exercise of
otherwise allowed rights.
+The **license** *may* require that distributions of the work remain
free of any technical measures that would restrict the exercise of
otherwise allowed rights.
Attribution
+The Open Definition was initially derived from the Open Source
Definition, which in turn was derived from the original Debian Free
Software Guidelines, and the Debian Social Contract of which they are a
part, which were created by Bruce Perens and the Debian Developers.
Bruce later used the same text in creating the Open Source Definition.
This definition is substantially derivative of those documents and
retains their essential principles. Richard Stallman was the first to
push the ideals of software freedom which we continue.
