5. A piece of data or content is open if
anyone is free to use, reuse, and
redistribute it subject only, at most,

6. Science is based on building on,
reusing and openly criticising the

knowledge.
For science to effectively function,
and for society to reap the full
benefits from scientific endeavours, it
is crucial that science data be made
open.
