Yes. Everything is published under Creative Commons Attribution.

(One of the members of our steering committee, Michael Nielsen, has a significant history advocating for open science. I think there's about a snowball's chance in hell he'd be involved if we weren't. :P )

It's not super clear what if any license is offered for code and data, eg from http://distill.pub/2016/misread-tsne/

> Diagrams and text are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution CC-BY 2.0, unless noted otherwise, with the source available on GitHub. The figures that have been reused from other sources don’t fall under this license and can be recognized by a note in their caption: “Figure from …”.

Ideally code and data would be unambiguously public domain (CC0-1.0) or under appropriate open source and open data licenses.

this is tres bien.

same for data sets?

That would preclude most research data.

If you use Wikipedia as an input, for example, your data is CC-By-SA, not CC-By.

Seems to be here: http://distill.pub/journal/

Passages like:

"Distill articles must be released under the Creative Commons Attribution license."

With a little more flexibility to keep things private before publishing: "You can keep it private during the review process if you would like"
