First of all it would be interesting for what we need the Open Database License and the Factual Information License? So we are actully not talking about just one (everyone just talks about ODbL) but two licenses, so what's als about this factual information license thing? An appropriat wiki page for me would be a page that explains to a "law noob" like me what happens to my data that I submit. What can be done with the data once it's uploaded (from an contributer and user perspectiv) and what could happen with it in the future (especially concerning the licenses, new versions of them and how we want to prevent another discussion like this). Who is the owner of this material. Maybe one should point out the differences between the current licens and the new licenseS and what it means to the regular contributer. It is not important to show every aspect of the licens but to give a good and short overview. Giving more information about the licenses might be good to get them more popular. Because the more I read about it here on the mailing list the more I get confused and by now I even disagree a little with the license change. A good wiki page that shows a little more then just the current one might help more.
