Re: Help with ODRL

Hi Vincent, we believe that ODRL would provide a strong basis for the foundation for the updated NISO standards for Access & License Indicators.

As a Community Group we would be happy to support this adoption and provide our expertise and experience towards the development of the Profile.

For the use cases described in section 5 of the current spec at: https://groups.niso.org/apps/group_public/download.php/14226/rp-22-2015_ALI.pdf <https://groups.niso.org/apps/group_public/download.php/14226/rp-22-2015_ALI.pdf>
would be relatively easy to implement with appropriate (open source) tools and systems.

Please let us know if you have any further questions and next steps?

Cheers - Renato

There is some information about the working group athttps://www.niso.org/niso-io/2020/10/help-us-update-recommended-practice-access-and-license-indicators-ali <https://www.niso.org/niso-io/2020/10/help-us-update-recommended-practice-access-and-license-indicators-ali> and I would be glad to share more information. The reason for this email is that I am researching ODRL for its potential to help with certain use cases. It looks like ODRL is able to support the use cases that we are trying to address. However, it also looks like a system that processes ODRL would need to be very complex unless only a subset of ODRL is being used. I want to ensure that the recommendation for ALI can be implemented by a developer with commonly available skills. The purpose of this email is to start a conversation and find out where to ask questions and get help. Do you have any general advice on how to make implementing ODRL easy, and what is the best way to ask for help regarding ODRL?
