Going through the benefits they mention of their "hybrid" model, the following bits caught my attention: - provide wider rights across the (...) public sector, enhanced data sharing and clarifying non commercial re-use of derived data - remove the restrictive licence framework to the public sector - provide maximum transparency and level playing for competitors I wonder if are they considering CC-BY-NC?

Given the difficultly in acquiring OS stuff that is already PD don't get your hopes too high.
