070831 -
070832 -      Basically, to use something contributed to the colloquium, in the
070833 -      absence of any other license, you need permission from either the
070834 -      contributor, Stanford, or the Bootstrap Institute. While this
070835 -      state of affairs is probably adequate for the durection of the
070836 -      colloquium, clearly it is too one-sided to persist for the long
070837 -      term. If major contributions are to be made to the OHS/DKR, then
070838 -      they will need to be made under a license that gives a much wider
070839 -      audience some sort of permission to use the contributions and
070840 -      redistribute them. ref DRT 1 0164
