No, Len, you didn't miss anything about Chuck Chermside's concerns on this
listserver ---  apparently it was a discussion on the COGR listserver.  I'd
guess Ann posted to the wrong list---maybe she'd cross-post for RESADM-L,
because it is an interesting topic.

The part of COGR comments I saw:  contributors were Yale, Duke, MIT, Virginia
Commonwealth, questioning who had written policies and curious about
institutional policy on who owns data, especially when a faculty member leaves
an institution. No solutions offered, although Karen Hershey, Intellectual
Property Counsel at MIT, cited 2 instances in which institutional ownership
proved critical.
