[OSM-legal-talk] license change effect on un-tagged nodes

2011-07-02 Thread Frederik Ramm

Hi,

   suppose there's a node that has been created by user A with no tags 
on it. Suppose the node has later been moved by user B. A has not 
accepted the CT, while B has.


Will the node have to be removed when we go to phase 5 of the license 
change?


You could say: yes, because version 2 is clearly a derived work of 
version 1.


You could also say: no, because the information added in version 2 
(new coordinates) overwrites all information that was there from version 
1, so there is nothing left to be protected.


Opinions?

Bye
Frederik

I'm guessing, but I feel your simple example above would only hold
true for unattached nodes.
