[OSM-legal-talk] Actual numbers on PD contributions
I've produced some numbers to getter a better grip on and if the PD "issue" has any real significance. I found 476 mappers in the PD or CC0 categories, of these (using a simple lower case name comparison), I was able to determine the UID of 375. Obviously there is some potential for errors because there is no one to one relationship between UIDs/OSM logins and wiki user names. Of the 375, 304 have accepted the CTs. 5 (five) have refused. And 66 haven't decided yet. With the same list of 476 mappers I ran a modified version of my V1 script that gave the following numbers for objects created by "PD" mappers: Nodes: 1'195'041 (0.11%) Highways: 92'374 (0.22%) Other ways: 74'139 (0.13%) Routes: 255 (0.20%) Other rel: 3'740 (0.42%) And a total of 42 "PD" mappers that actually still have V1 objects in the database. Notes: - the numbers are based on the full history planet from 2011-06-19, license data from the 2011-09-08 - the numbers include TimSC, whose contributions, as we know, are not really PD.

Just a small clarification: the 42 (naturally) does not include PD mappers that have accepted the CTs.

When they roll back the contributions of a local PD mapper, the face of much my US state roads will revert back to near TIGER, as well as removing all of his personal surveys and local knowledge. Nodes Ways Relations Created: 37898 5671 5 Touched: 100187 19721 154 Last mod: 59198 8864 0 These percentages will be quite large in his home region. I'm not going to waste my time trying to recreate his work except for some roads near me, I'll just let the map degrade. ___ legal-talk mailing list legal-talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/legal-talk
