Dear ODRL Community, Julian Rojas, Beatriz Esteves, Pieter Colpaert, Ruben Verborgh and I are pleased to present our paper, 'Interoperable Interpretation and Evaluation of ODRL Policies', that has been accepted for the ESWC25 Resource Track [1, 2]. The paper is influenced by and hopefully an addition to the ODRL Formal Semantics specification [3]. In it, we introduce three components to improve policy engine interoperability when using the Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL) [4]: - The Compliance Report Model: Denotes the result of an ODRL evaluation in an interoperable manner [5] - ODRL Evaluator: An open implementation of an ODRL Evaluator that evaluates ODRL policies by generating Compliance Reports [6] - The ODRL Test Suite: A software component that executes, validates and measures the compliance of an ODRL evaluator over a set of test cases [7] To further enhance the exploration and usability of ODRL evaluations, we have developed FORCE [8], an interactive web application powered by the ODRL Evaluator. This application allows users to modify key inputs and gain deeper insights through comprehensive explanations of compliance report results. Moreover, FORCE is seamlessly integrated with a diverse set of examples dynamically sourced from the test suite, making the experimentation with ODRL evaluations both intuitive and accessible. We hope our contribution sparks some discussions in the monthly ODRL meetings or ODRL Formal Semantic meetings. We also welcome any feedback on the repositories to help continue improving our work.
