I'm happy to announce that, after a rather long gestation period, the Collective Database Guideline http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/License/Community_Guidelines/Collective_Database_Guideline_Guideline was approved by the board at its recent meeting.
I would particularly like to thank everybody that was involved in drafting and revising the document and everybody that commented on the text and raised questions. The initial impetus for the document goes back to June 2010, see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Open_Data_License/Metadata_Layers_-_Guideline&oldid=481590, and a resolution of some of these questions was long overdue. I hope this will go a long way to remove some insecurity with respect to common use cases and will lay some bitter debates to rest. Simon
