I know the IETF would want to blast ISOC copyright notices on everything (access would still be free, but everything they do gets copyrighted by them). I have no idea what the unicode consortium's position would be, but I wouldn't be surprised to see something similar.
I would be. The Unicode Consortium hosts the UDHR Translation project, but doesn’t have any of the copyrights. It would just be acting as a host for the tz project. http://www.unicode.org/udhr/ On Aug 27, 2009, at 10:48 AM, Mark Davis wrote:
The officers of the Unicode Consortium (http://unicode.org) have discussed this issue, and are interested in exploring hosting the TZ efforts. Aside from the Unicode projects, we currently also support other independent efforts (http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/, http://www.unicode.org/udhr/ ). Hosting the TZ project would provide for mailing list hosting, code distribution, source code repository (SVN) if desired, etc., web pages, etc. -- presuming that the functioning of the TZ group would continue basically as it does now.
If there is interest in something along these lines, we can discuss more specifics of what this would look like and then pass a proposal by our board of directors.
