Open Hardware License released by CERN!

A very nice complement to the Open Source Hardware Definition that the Open Hardware Summit team has been curating for the past year is the Open Hardware Initiative announced by CERN, including the Open Hardware Repository recently launched there.

A bit of a legalistic focus when there are real hardware specs to peruse (who knows, maybe even some of Cornelius’ work is in there ? ), but I think it is cool that after the Definition we now have the CERNOHL License. Now, let the BSD vs GPL vs Apache vs MIT-with-crumpets discussion begin ?
