Subject: ODRL use cases for interactive/desktop product usage

Hi Ben,

As discussed last week, based on the work we've done with the FITS and INFOmatch user communities about their priorities for contractual rights compliance, most of the feedback was about sharing rights information to end-users for desktop/interactive products rather than system-to-system controls. Some of the notable requirements were:


  *   Visibility of usage rights when a product is being ordered by a user
  *   Making rights information visible to users as they access a product
  *   Sending information about the usage rights for a user's active subscriptions to them
  *   Training them on the usage rights for their desktop products
  *   Identifying non-compliant usage (e.g. a user downloaded a PDF and e-mailed it to an external e-mail address)

I would certainly urge the ODRL working group to bear in mind use cases other than the purely programmatic dissemination of market data.  Obviously, most of the above features would need to be built into spend management systems such as ours but it's obviously important that the ODRL is able to capture the usage rights information needed to drive the user-facing functionality. Some examples would be:


  *   I'm creating a spreadsheet containing a terminal vendor's data - am I allowed to share this with clients
  *   I'm creating a spreadsheet combining two vendors data to create derived data
  *   I'm creating a spreadsheet combining two vendors data to create derived data - am I allowed to share this with clients?
  *   I'm downloading a tearsheet from a rating agency - am I allowed to share this with colleagues and/or with clients?

Hope that's helpful and the sort of thing you were looking for.

As mentioned last week, would be very happy to facilitate a presentation to the TRG Screen user community on the ODRL initiative and, hopefully, we can get you into an in-person user group later this year or early next.

Kind Regards,
