# DISO Ontology Member Licence Records

Every member ontology (i.e., an ontology in the DISO collection) had its upstream license fetched (verbatim) from its authoritative source. This is recorded in a `LICENSE` file local to each ontology's home directory. Each local LICENSE file contains the upstream licence text, included verbatim, between RFC 4880 style markers with a SHA-256 checksum for verifiability.

## Licensing table

The Source(s) column links the origin of each verbatim licence text; `§n` matches the numbered verbatim section in the local `LICENSE` file. The *SPDX* column uses [SPDX licence expressions](https://spdx.org/licenses/); `LicenseRef-*` denotes terms with no SPDX identifier (e.g. MITRE terms of use) and `NOASSERTION` means no licence could be established.

## License Status

- **licensed** — an explicit upstream licence was located.
- **uncertain** — a licence claim exists but its authority or binding to the ontology artefact is weak.
- **no licence found** — a search located no licence.
