I would like to report an issue on the About page at /about. Description of the issue:

This statement at the bottom of the page is not really correct as the CC licenses are not part of the Open Source Initiative:

"The ELIXIR Research Data Management Kit makes all of their materials publicly available under Open Source Initiative licenses. The process documents and data are made available under a CC-BY license. Software are made available under an MIT license. For full details on licensing, please visit our License document."

Thanks @nicjar, yes OSI-approved licenses are for open source software not creative works. To correct the statement, I would suggest:

The ELIXIR Research Data Management Kit makes all its materials publicly available under open licenses. Software is released under the MIT license (an Open Source Initiative-approved license), while the process documents and data are made available under a CC-BY license. For full details on licensing, please visit our License document.
