Again, I think we should encourage more specificity than the boolean
property flag.
One academic makes the following statements
_:sillyAcademicsDataset a dct:Dataset ;
prov:wasDerivedFrom realworld:commercialDataset .
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
:tried-to-determine-license true .
Second Academic makes these statements
_:lazyAcademicsDataset a dct:Dataset ;
prov:wasDerivedFrom realworld:commercialDataset .
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
:tried-to-determine-license true .
Combine this knowledge
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
:tried-to-determine-license true ;
:tried-to-determine-license false .
Not very helpful.
Take the rdfs:comment approach
_:sillyAcademicsDataset a dct:Dataset ;
prov:wasDerivedFrom realworld:commercialDataset .
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
dct:license [rdfs:comment "I tried to look at XXX,
and believe its fair use because of YYYY" ]
_:lazyAcademicsDataset a dct:Dataset ;
prov:wasDerivedFrom realworld:commercialDataset .
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
dct:license [rdfs:comment "Lazy academic did not
care to look for the license"]
Combine this knowlege
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
dct:license [rdfs:comment "I tried to look at XXX,
and believe its fair use because of YYYY" ],
[rdfs:comment "Lazy academic did
not care to look for the license"] .
Its still use full.
Then try this
_:sillyAcademicsDataset a dct:Dataset ;
prov:wasDerivedFrom realworld:commercialDataset .
realworld:commercialDataset a dct:Dataset ;
dct:license [a :UseAtOwnLegalRisk .
rdfs:comment "I tried to look at
XXX, and believe its fair use because of YYYY" ]
Even more rich information an end user can actually use.
One has to think about more than one re-publisher of a dataset, as
that does happen in our field (see drugbank as a real life example).

Jerven
