Dear Colleagues,
Has anyone else had the HMSO regulatory framework pointed out to them
recently at http:www.hmso.gov.uk/regulation-framework.htm ? In particular,
proposal C (bullet point 24) may have serious implications for Ordnance
Survey map licences in educational institutions:
'It would also mean that charities and educational institutions would have
to pay for their licences on the same basis as firms working for profit.
This could restrict access in ways that significantly reduced dissemination'
Has anyone else been discussing this?
