Hi,
Have there been many projects/companies which improved TIGER and
released the results as PD?
None that I know of; I suppose they have all spent a lot of money to
be able to process and improve TIGER and they probably want to recoup
that investment through proprietary licensing.
Is it

Hi,
Is it relevant to us?
Surely it's highly relevant to your assertion that we would build a
strong community around OSM if it was PD?
I thought OJW was not talking about communities but about corporations.
Which generally have a bad track record of working for free (perhaps

Nathan,
I'm 100% with you as regards PD; I also think that it would cause
much less hassle, make OSM a better project and be morally superior
along the way.
However there are many people who think differently, and you may
encounter some of them on legal-talk to which I'm CCing this, with

I really would like to see a license as simple as the following:
For data users -
0. Open Street Map collects and creates public domain map data.
1. Attribution of Open Street Map is expected. We make it easy.
2. Contributing back or freely sharing modifications is strongly
encouraged.

That's my problem as well. We are not much better than other owners of
geodata. They say:
1. Geodata is very valuable and takes a lot of work to collect and
those who do all the work should be the owners of the data and
dictate under what rules it may be used;
2.

I hope that I did make my concerns clear without offending anyone too
greatly. Regardless, it would probably be more helpful to say what I

OK, thanks for explaining this. I was actually just responding to

Sarcasm can be a major problem on lists
Hi,
I don't understand why some users want their work in PD.
You don't have to understand, just accept that some want it.

For me, it seems ironic that a project spawned from licensing issues
over map data has found itself in a situation where licensing issues
are still a problem,
Yeah, what an irony. Those who started the project must have thought
that

The goal of osm is to have a map of the world freely available for

correct and complete it, and copyright it in a way that osm cannot
reuse the modification. So the

And where all the data entered by the PD guys was done without looking

Hi,
While I have the PD-user template on my user page and would encourage
like-minded folks to do the same, I feel it is mostly a political
