[Isod-rg] permission request--Open Grid Forum

[Sill, Alan]

Dear Ms. Montgomery,

Thank you for your message of 5 August, forwarded to me by the ISOD research group chair, as included for reference below.

With respect to your request for permission to use material in GFD.208 as part of an online program, we refer you to the copyright statement already included in the document, which already permits such use.

Basically, the statement allows derivative works with references that quote the copyright notice for any material taken directly from the document. Such references can be in an appendix or list of citations, and apply only to the material derived from the published Open Grid Forum document — that is, they do not apply to other portions of your own work. The citation should be applied to any material taken from the published OGF document.

Based on this, we believe you may use the material you request according to these conditions, and that no further permissions should be required.

Please let me know if this satisfies your request. Feel free to contact us again if you have any further questions.

Alan Sill, Ph.D
President
Open Grid Forum

OGF, with the approval of its board, may remove this restriction for inclusion of OGF document content for the purpose of producing standards in cooperation with other international standards bodies.
