3.  CC0 as default solution, with 2 minor issues...
 …absence of official Italian version ↔
“kind of dual licensing” as work­around
 do whatever you want or/that­is
receive the data under CC0
+…added statement about ownership of rights
 be sure that the government is the only right­holder
 direct application of CC0 to
all datasets already available online

4.  flexible guidelines
 if you deviate, they just ask you to explain why
 CC BY as only applied exception (1.5 years)
 when effort in making dataset was significant

5.  case study (past situation): “transaction costs”
 50,000 € = yearly revenues from geo­data
 cost = 1 full time person + meetings, etc.
