\subsection{A Note on Components}
\label{subsec:note-components}
If your design is modular, consider licensing each of
the components you have designed separately, and then having an overarching
design, also licensed under an appropriate variant of CERN-OHL which contains
the each of the sub-components. This will
make life easier for licensees who only want to make use of one
component of
your design.
