"If you have a workable scheme, I'd love to hear about it..."
The point of this project is to get people together to pool their knowledge and experience to give the ICOC some choices to consider.
And no, I'm not an expert about anything "open source," but what I've seen in its results and what I've read about some of its intentions makes me think there are people who believe some of its principles would bring benefits to other fields.
This project isn't to do biomedical research; it's about getting people to explore the options for how it should be done here in California.
The ICOC will decide on how to handle its IP with or without really understanding "open source" inspired possibilities. This project seeks to help demonstrate what those possibilities are.
Thanks. Your second paragraph shows you get what I'm proposing, and why I think this project necessary. California is open to new standards right now - once it starts making real decisions in only a few months, protest would be futile.
Save the sore throat and speak up before it's too late! Please support this project.

Ha! Thanks for your comment. I figured this out after seeing the first day's responses. Oh well, lesson learned.

That's what I want to prevent!
