<p>The phenomenon of OSH is in its infancy, and as a result there are only a handful of potential options when choosing an appropriate license. Many of these are Copyleft or ‘viral’ licenses.</p> | <p>The phenomenon of OSH is in its infancy, and as a result there are only a handful of potential options when choosing an appropriate license.

<p>One of the most widespread is the Creative Commons* Attribution-ShareAlike license. This is however not specifically designed for OSH, and was instead developed for works of art such as music and designs, as well as software [1].
