Yes, it's quite tricky and we need to hammer out at least some details (for
the entire movement). Right now, the best we can do is monitor closely, set
red flags and then hope to get to a consensus.

By the way, there is also some interest in open research
data<https://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda/en/news/ec-public-consultation-open-research-data-2-july-brussels>by
the EU. I missed the initial consultation, but I am planning to follow
the proceeding closely.
