Dear COMCIFS,

 

With apologies for the delay, here are the results of voting for the default licence for CIF dictionaries. CC-BY is the preferred option. I will convey this decision to the Executive for their approval.

 

Raw votes, in descending order of preference (note: 0 = CC0, BY= CC-BY-4.0, BY-SA = CC-BY-SA-4.0)

SW: BY 0 BY-SA

JRH: BY BY-SA 0

HJB: BY-SA BY 0

SB : 0 BY BY-SA

JB : BY-SA BY 0

 

Condorcet voting two-way match-ups: (x-y in cell (row A, col B) means A is preferred to B x times)

      |  0   BY  BY-SA

0     |  -  1-4   2-3

BY    | 4-1   -   3-2

BY-SA | 3-2  2-3  -

 

As BY wins in match-ups with both 0 and BY-SA it is the overall winner.

 

If you prefer preferential voting:

 

After distribution of first preferences:

0 1 vote

BY 2 votes

BY-SA 2 votes

 

Distributing second preference of CC0 vote:

BY 3 votes

BY-SA 2 votes

 

So in this system BY is also the preferred option.
