Thank you very much! I just noticed that each sample includes a copy of OpenSeadragon, which can't be licensed under CC0 because it is subject to third-party copyright. OpenSeadragon is...

Also: - Can you easily provide any additional descriptive metadata for each of the files? (Stain, type of tissue, etc.) It would be useful for the textual description of each...
