I have a possibly tricky #licensing question for all of you people who are not my #lawyer. I have collected a corpus of #email [1] to help tune #notmuch
There are about 200k messages collected from two public mailing lists and the Enron corpus. In a fit of public spirit I thought I should upload it as a dataset to https://zenodo.org. But I have no idea what license, if any to put on the data set. Anyone with similar experience? Somehow the Enron corpus ended up CC licensed, but I don't know if any lawyers were harmed in the making of that decision.
