Science Commons announced its new Protocol for Implementing Open Access Data, which is intended as "a method for ensuring that scientific databases can be legally integrated with one another," according to the statement. The protocol emerged from a year of meetings with scientists and representatives from a number of countries to help sort out the different public domain policies in effect. Next, Science Commons plans to launch a working group around the new protocol.
