Hi Pat
Your 1/5th is better than I had imagined actually!
When you mean JISC, do you mean what licence does JISC recommend people use for feeds?
It depends on the content of the feeds. CC fits for OER, but for things like course data feeds the OGL (open govt licence, for those not involved with these things) is a good fit, particularly because it doesn't require attribution I think. (Someone can correct me). And then there are the projects JISC is involved with in the galleries/libraries/archives/museums (GLAM) sector, which are somewhere in between the two, I guess, as often publicly-funded content-centric organisations http://openglam.org/2012/06/15/opening-up-your-metadata-challenges-standards-and-tools/ . So I'm not sure there is a single answer. Seems to be very much an emerging issue.

I think for Xpert we tracked how many feeds had CC licences for the feed (not the items in the feed)
Answer about 1/5th
What is JISC using open data wise? I've some stuff on the thedatahub (http://thedatahub.org/en/user/pgogy), but I worry if the OKFN stuff confuses people who've gotten used to CC stuff?
