The datameet maps repository has undoubtedly been the most widely used
dataset that we have produced and is often the go to resource for India
boundaries https://github.com/datameet/maps

Most of the data is currently licensed as CC-by-sa 2.5 and its not clear if
there was a strong reason to adopt that as the default license many years
ago. In the spirit of open data, it might make more sense to drop the share
alike clause and adopt CC-by 4.0 as the preferred license where the only
condition is attribution, This will allow much greater reuse of these
datasets and promotion of the DataMeet community.

More details on this ticket if anyone has thoughts, especially if there is
any argument in favour of using CC-by-sa:
